Some random headlines from the Arab world

A supposed failed plot to assassinate Islamic Jihad secretary-general Dr. Ramadan Abdullah in Beirut, involving a female protagonist.

Egypt started snooping on all of its citizens online - and then denied it.

Saudi Arabia says it will donate $500 million to rebuild Gaza. (They are notorious for not paying their pledges.)

A Palestinian female terrorist who was exiled to Algeria (Zakia Shammout?) has apparently died. She was said to have been involved in numerous bombings in the 1970s but I couldn't find anything about her. (I'm sure some of you will, though.)
