Brent crude futures sees notable rise, surpassing 2 percent per barrel
(MENAFN) Brent crude futures experienced a notable uptick, climbing over 2 percent or USD2 per barrel, signaling a rise to USD82.61 per barrel. The surge was fueled by widespread expectations that the OPEC+ group, comprising the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, including Russia, would implement further cuts in oil supplies in the upcoming weeks. Simultaneously, US West Texas Intermediate crude saw an increase of USD1.65, or 2.17 percent, reaching USD77.54.
The recent momentum in oil prices follows a 4 percent increase recorded at the end of the previous week. This surge was prompted by information from three OPEC+ sources, as reported by Reuters, indicating that the producers' alliance is poised to deliberate additional reductions in oil supplies during its scheduled meeting on the 26th of this month. Investors are keenly observing this meeting for potential market impacts, as the outcome could shape oil supply dynamics in the coming period.
In parallel, market participants are closely monitoring the potential disruption to crude oil supplies from Russia. This heightened scrutiny comes in the wake of Washington's imposition of sanctions on three ships involved in shipping Sokol crude to India. The geopolitical landscape and supply chain dynamics are contributing to increased volatility and strategic considerations within the global oil market.

(MENAFN- Morocco World News) With only a few days until its start, the 2016 European Cup of Nationsto be held in Francehas been surrounded by many fears and apprehensions, especially after the tragic terrorist attacks in France and Belgium this year.
According to Al Massae newspaper, the looming threat of terrorism has prompted France to strengthen its security cooperation with Morocco in order to to ensure the safety and security of the event and to avoid any possible attacks. Following several security reports that have raised alarms about serious terrorist threats against the European Cup of Nations, especially in the opening and final matches of the competition, France has recently intensified its intelligence cooperation and consultation with Moroccan security services. One such report was issued by the German Federal Bureau of Investigation: the German report alerts France against attacks that could target weakly-secured locations, and cause many casualties on the sidelines of the fifteenth edition of the European Football Championship. The challenge of terrorism has led French authorities to also cooperate with Tunisian and Mauritanian security services, in addition to their American counterparts. Yet, cooperation with Morocco remains crucial in light of the many issues that both countries have recently had to solve together. A week after the Paris attacks in November, French president Francois Hollande expressed, during his reception of King Mohamed VI in Paris, his gratitude for Morocco for its 'efficient help.' Accordingly, the Moroccan security and intelligence services will accompany their French allies in preventive measures before and after the competition. The Moroccan security services played an important role in the investigation that followed the attacks in Paris last November. The information provided by Morocco even helped to identify and apprehend several terrorists involved.

(MENAFN) In a move aimed at enhancing cybersecurity, the French government has officially prohibited its employees from using popular messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal for internal communications. The ban, set to take effect on December 8, is outlined in a memo from Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne. The decision is driven by concerns over security vulnerabilities associated with these widely-used messaging platforms.
Instead of the banned apps, cabinet members have been encouraged to adopt the use of the French encrypted messaging app, Olvid. Unlike its global counterparts, Olvid operates without requiring a SIM card or phone number from users and offers encryption not only for message content but also for metadata. Notably, Olvid is the only messaging platform to receive a security certificate from the French National Agency for the Security of Information Systems (ANSSI). Additionally, the use of another French messaging app, Tchap, is also permitted under the new guidelines.
This stringent policy mirrors a similar approach taken by the Swiss military last year, which mandated soldiers to cease using popular messaging apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal. Instead, they were directed to use Threema, a domestically-developed encrypted messaging service, for both official and private communications.
The recent memo from Prime Minister Borne is the second instance of app bans for French public servants this year. In March, Minister of Public Services Stanislas Guerini announced the prohibition of "recreational apps" like TikTok on government phones due to security risks.
Twitter, Instagram, Netflix, Candy Crush, and dating apps were also included in the earlier ban.
The decision reflects an ongoing effort by the French government to bolster digital security measures and protect sensitive information from potential threats. As the threat landscape evolves, governments around the world are increasingly adopting strict measures to ensure the cybersecurity of their internal communications and data.

(MENAFN – IANS)
Tel Aviv, July 16 (IANS) Israel has launched a national plan to open the economy to imports, the finance and economy ministries said in a joint statement.
The plan is expected to reduce the regulatory burden on importers, especially small and medium-sized ones, by removing trade barriers, Xinhua News Agency reported on Thursday, citing the statement.
This will expand the range of products marketed in the country and increase competition, lowering prices and saving about 5 billion new shekels ($ 1 billion) per year for the Israeli economy.
The plan aims to lower the cost of living, increase productivity and increase the growth of Israeli industry and the Israeli economy in general.
It is based on a reform carried out in Switzerland in 2010 and will align Israeli regulations with import principles from Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development countries, the ministries noted.
The plan will exempt importers from presenting manufacturer certificates on the product’s compliance with Israeli standards.
They will only need to present laboratory tests to confirm suitability.

New Delhi, July 26 (IANS) Diagnostic company Genes2Me on Tuesday announced that they have developed a real-time PCR-based kit for monkeypox virus.
The company claimed that its POX-Q Multiplexed RT-PCR kit produces results in less than 50 minutes with a high accuracy rate.
'This unprecedented time underscores the importance of diagnostic assays in health security preparedness and readiness. Understanding the value of time, we have launched this RT PCR for Monkeypox which will give the result in less than 50 minutes with the highest accuracy,' said Neeraj Gupta, CEO and Founder of Genes2Me, in a statement.
Gupta noted that the company currently has the 'capacity to manufacture 5 million test kits in a week, and it can be scaled up to 2 million tests in a day with the added demand'.
Amid more than 16,000 cases of monkeypox being reported from 75 countries, including four from India, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared the outbreak a public health emergency of international concern.
The WHO recommended that specimen type for laboratory confirmation of monkeypox is skin lesion material, including swabs of lesion surface and/or exudate, roofs from more than one lesion, or lesion crusts.
Hence, for detection of monkeypox, both dry swabs and swabs placed in VTM or viral transport medium -- a solution used to preserve virus specimens after collection -- can be used.
The kit is available in both the standard version for any commonly available RT-PCR instruments as well as point-of-care format on Genes2Me Rapi-Q HT Rapid RT-PCR device.
The point-of-care solution can be used for screening at multiple sites including hospitals, airports, diagnostic labs, health camps, among others, the company said.

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) The apparently indefinitely extended combat deployments of Russian personnel without rotation is increasingly seen as unsustainable by both the troops themselves and by their relatives.
The relevant statement was made by the Ministry of Defence of the United Kingdom on the social media platform X , referring to the latest Defence Intelligence update, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
On November 7, 2023, wives of deployed Russian soldiers conducted what was probably the first public street protest in Moscow since the invasion of Ukraine.
The protestors gathered in the central Teatralnaya Square and unfurled banners demanding the rotation of their partners away from the frontline.
Since February 2022, social media has provided daily examples of Russian wives and mothers making online appeals protesting against the conditions of their loved ones' service.
However, Russia's draconian legislation has so far prevented troops' relatives from coalescing into an influential lobbying force, as soldiers' mothers did during the Afghan-Soviet War of the 1980s, the analysts noted.
Police broke up the Teatralnaya Square protest within minutes. However, the protestors' immediate demand is notable, according to the UK intelligence.
“The apparently indefinitely extended combat deployments of personnel without rotation is increasingly seen as unsustainable by both the troops themselves and by their relatives,” the analysts concluded.

(MENAFN- Asia Times) On February 8, drowned out by the flood of commentary that followed his interview with Tucker Carlson, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave the Kremlin one week to prepare a draft decree on the Strategy for Technological Development of the Russian Federation and update its list of Russia's most important science-intensive technologies.
For the past two years, Putin has emphasized the urgency of developing this equipment through domestic, independent production processes, and Washington has failed to take notice of this discrete economic transition.
When the West responded to Russia's invasion of Ukraine with an exhaustive sanctions program and bans on specialized exports, Moscow was suddenly required to restructure its economy.
At first, this meant selling enormous quantities of its energy commodities to China to achieve the same level of economic growth. It quickly became obvious to Russian policymakers that this was not a sustainable long-term plan. Thus Russia turned to import substitutions, including in its nascent high-tech sector.
Russia has traditionally been a resource-based economy that exchanges its unfinished products such as oil, gas and coal for manufactured goods produced abroad. Now, in order to reduce its reliance on other countries, the Kremlin is pressuring factories and companies to furnish finished products that act as alternatives to those that were once principally imported from the West. To do so, Russia will need a robust indigenous high-tech sector.
Since the start of the year, Russia has made several noteworthy steps to reach this goal. It launched a national platform aimed at developing and implementing artificial intelligence (AI) – from cloud computing to neural-network models – in fields such as education, agriculture, and health care.

(MENAFN- IANS) Paris, June 6 (IANS) Czech tennis player Karolina Muchova defeated 2021 finalist Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 7-5, 6-2 in the French Open quarterfinal and booked herself a maiden spot in the final four on Parisian clay.
With a win in an all-unseeded Roland-Garros quarterfinal between two former Top 20 players returning from injury, Muchova reached the second Grand Slam semifinal of her career, following the 2021 Australian Open.
An abdominal issue sidelined the Czech player for six months following the 2021 US Open, and at the Roland-Garros last year she sustained an ankle injury in the third round against Amanda Anisimova that saw her taken off the court in a wheelchair.
Muchova, whose career-high ranking is No.19, had fallen to No.235 last August. But her comeback has gathered pace this year: she had reached two WTA 1000 quarterfinals in Dubai and Indian Wells, as well as the last 16 in Rome, to rise back to her current ranking of 43. Her overall 2023 record now stands at 24-7
On the other hand, Pavlyuchenkova missed seven months of action due to a knee injury last year and is ranked No.333 in the world.
Muchova, who has dropped just one set en route to the last four, will face either No.2 seed Aryna Sabalenka or former World No.3 Elina Svitolina in a bid to make her first Grand Slam final.

(MENAFN- Jordan Times) AMMAN — The Greater Amman Municipality (GAN) on Thursday urged contractors to abide by its building codes, and requirements to safeguard public safety and avoid damage of private and state-owned properties.
It also advised people starting construction projects of apartment buildings or other properties for the first time to visit its offices to be acquainted with the standard procedures and prerequisites for commencing a construction project of whatever nature, according to Raed Haddadin, head of the municipality's construction monitoring department.
'We call on people, especially those involved in construction projects for the first time, to visit GAM's construction monitoring department to learn about the process and the laws and regulations,' Haddadin told The Jordan Times.
He underlined that owners of construction projects and contractors who fail to abide by the municipality's building regulations will face legal sanctions and bear the costs of any damages to private and public properties.
'Abiding by municipal regulations protects the public and properties on one hand and also saves contractors and property developers hefty costs if anything goes wrong on the other,' Haddadin highlighted.
Part of a street in Marj Al Hammam located next to a construction site collapsed on Tuesday, officials said, noting that, although the incident did not result in any injuries, it damaged a main water pipe that supplies Marj Al Hammam with water.
'The pipeline caved in during drilling at the site. Most of water subscribers did not receive their share of water under the weekly distribution programme, the pipe got damaged and thousands of cubic metres of water were wasted as the pipe burst, creating a huge pond,' an official at the Ministry of Water and Irrigation told The Jordan Times.
GAM and the Civil Defence Department cooperated in pumping out the water from the construction pit, according to Haddadin, who noted that a public safety higher committee demanded that a study on the project be submitted, detailing the expected 'hazards' during the construction of the project and plans to address them if they occurred.

(MENAFN- AFP) "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" soared past "Avatar" to seize the title of top-grossing movie ever in North America, the Disney studio announced.
Disney said the seventh film in the "Star Wars" saga had grossed $758.2 million through Tuesday, when it took in $8 million, and surpassed on Wednesday the $760.5 million earned by James Cameron's Oscar-winning futuristic sci-fi epic "Avatar."
"This afternoon, with early box office results in, 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' became the highest-grossing film of all time in the domestic market," Disney said in a statement, without providing figures.
At $1.56 billion in global earnings, "The Force Awakens" still has some work ahead to overtake "Avatar" ($2.79 billion) or another Cameron blockbuster, "Titanic" ($2.19 billion).
It is now fourth in all-time worldwide revenues, also trailing "Jurassic World" ($1.67 billion).
But many observers expect the film, produced by Lucasfilm and Bad Robot Productions and distributed globally by Disney, ultimately to challenge for the top spot.
"'Star' Wars has always been one of the most beloved franchises in all of filmdom...it was just a matter of finally having a deserving sequel to the original trilogy that tipped the scales and topped 'Avatar,'" said Jeff Bock, of industry tracker Exhibitor Relations.
The upcoming release on Saturday in the huge Chinese market of the film directed by J.J. Abrams could help give it a further push to warp speed.
The success of "The Force Awakens" -- detailing the adventures of classic "Star Wars" characters Princess Leia and Han Solo as well as new heroes like Rey, Finn and Poe Dameron -- helped propel the overall American box office to a record $11.1 billion last year, the Rentrak website reported.

(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Currently, Russian supplies cover 8-9% of the European gas demand, while previously, the aggressor power effectively dominated the European market.
That's according to Oleksandr Kharchenko, chief of the Energy Research Center think tank, who spoke at a briefing hosted by the Media Center Ukraine – Ukrinform Friday.
'As of now, Russia has withdrawn from the European gas market. Against the situation where it used to actually control it, they are now supplying approximately 8-9% of the volumes consumed by Europe,' Kharchenko said.
According to the expert, these volumes are now in further decline. Read also:
'Russia lost the European market by its own efforts. If Ukraine had fought for it, and Russia had continued supplies, we would not have achieved such an effect for another five years,' the expert commented.
He noted that the annual loss of $55 billion, which came from gas exports, would be painful for Russia's budget.
As reported, early September, the European Commission designated two possible options for capping the price for Russian gas in the wake of yet another reduction in supplies by Russia's Gazprom.
On September 2, Gazprom put all gas flows to Europe through the Nord Stream 1 pipe to a full halt. At the same time, the EU increased shipments of liquefied natural gas (LNG) or pipeline gas from the U.S., Norway, Algeria, Azerbaijan, and other suppliers.

More than 60 high school students from across Qatar attended the Future A&M Engineers (FAME) event, hosted by the Student Engineers' Council (SEC) at Qatar Foundation partner university Texas A&M University at Qatar.
SEC organised the event, which was sponsored by Dolphin Energy.
The two-day engineering immersion event introduced prospective Aggies to the university's world-class, accredited engineering programs as well as the rigors, fun and traditions of being an engineering student at Texas A&M at Qatar.
Students and graduates of Texas A&M University are called“Aggies” and that tradition continues at Texas A&M's branch campus in Doha.
Student attendees participated in a variety of hands-on workshops and team-building activities, including a design competition, so attendees could learn what engineering looks like in real life. Participants also learned about the ever-growing importance and need for engineers, especially in Qatar.
SEC President Zaina Aloudeh said,“The FAME event gives us an opportunity to showcase what life at Texas A&M at Qatar: from our engineering majors, to Aggie culture and traditions. High school students who joined us got an opportunity to speak to current students, and gain insights from industry as well. We believe the event was a success, and we hope to see many of them joining us in the near future.”
Attendees also learned about leadership development and extracurricular opportunities offered by Texas A&M at Qatar - opportunities that shape Aggie engineers into engineering leaders that are so sought after worldwide.
Miguel Treviño, Director of Student Affairs, said,“Texas A&M University at Qatar is committed to providing opportunities for students to develop into leaders and the future engineers of this country. The Student Engineers' Council is one of our premier student organizations that annually provides opportunities for perspective students to learn about the engineering field and how our campus can help transform their dreams to reality. FAME is just one of the many events that our student leaders put together throughout the year that focus on the Aggie Core Values of Respect, Excellence, Leadership, Loyalty, Integrity, and Selfless Service.”

Lahore, Dec 18 (IANS) Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman and former Prime Minister
Imran Khan on Sunday said that he has a 'personal' dispute with former army chief, Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa (retd) but he will not take any action against him if he comes into power again, media reports said.
Imran Khan said that new Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Asim Munir himself has said that he will remain neutral. However, he added that holding elections within three months after the dissolution of assemblies will the biggest test of his neutrality.
He said that when Lt Gen Faiz Hameed was removed as DG ISI, it became obvious that a plan has been hatched to topple the PTI government. 'I told Gen Bajwa that if the plan to topple the government succeeds, no one will be able to manage the country's
economy,' he added, Express Tribune reported.
The former Prime Minister said that he asked the then army chief how Shehbaz Sharif could be considered for the Prime Minister's post as he was named in Rs16 billion worth of corruption cases. However, he added, he later came to know that corruption was not an issue for Gen Bajwa.
'Gen Bajwa used to say that Aleem Khan should be made the (Punjab) Chief Minister. I found out about his illegal possessions so I said how he can be made Chief Minister,' he said, Express Tribune reported.
Imran Khan said that Pakistan's economy would have performed even better if there wasn't a coronavirus pandemic and China was not locked down for two years.
Economy of the country is on a decline and income of people is low, then how can loans be returned in this situation, he questioned. 'A country cannot prosper if there is no rule of law,' he added.
'I told Gen Bajwa that if we catch 10 to 12 top corrupt people, everything will get back on right track.'
Imran Khan said that National Accountability Bureau (NAB) was formed in 1999 but it should be questioned whether corruption increased or decreased since then.
'We had a decent relation with Gen Bajwa but I don't know what happened later.'

Avoid Roblox, Unity, and Ubisoft
Investors pummeled stocks in the gaming sector in the last year. They sold ahead of the anticipation that sales of expensive game titles will fall. Consumers need to prioritize necessities over entertainment.
Three companies that have fundamental headwinds are Roblox (RBLX)), Unity (U), and Ubisoft (UBSFY). In Dec. 2022, Roblox posted daily active users of 61.5 million, up by 18% Y/Y. Engaged hours also rose. Unfortunately, the higher activity did not raise its revenue. Revenue fell by around 1% to 6%. Without revenue growth, RBLX stock is not attractive.
Unity (U) is a gaming platform that must contend with the impact of an economic slowdown. It cut 284 workers on Jan. 17, 2023. Last June, it cut 225 jobs. Its acquisition of ironSource pivots Unity's revenue stream to advertising. During a downturn, ad spending falls. Unity will have fewer staff members to work on product development, hurting its growth.
Ubisoft, based in Paris, France, is approaching a decade low. The firm wrote off EUR 500 million. It canceled three unannounced projects. Previously, it canceled four titles announced last July.
Ubisoft has plenty of cash. However, its strongest titles are losing consumer interest. Assassin's Creed and Far Cry are burning cash as development work increases.
Avoid Ubisoft stock.
