World Bank Raises Egypt Support Package by $300 Million

The World Bank has announced a $300 million increase to its financial support package for Egypt. According to Aswaaq Al-Awsat Agency, the move is intended to offset the economic fallout from Iran-linked tensions and broader regional conflicts.

The decision signals the international lender's focus on preserving economic stability in Egypt, the Arab world's largest economy, as it navigates a wide set of regional headwinds affecting countries across the Middle East.
