About The Egyptian
In ancient Egypt, Sinuhe (Edmund Purdom) is a would-be doctor who saves the life of a young man (Michael Wilding) suffering from a seizure. When the afflicted youth awakes, he introduces himself as the Pharaoh Akhnaton and makes Sinuhe the royal healer. While working at his new, prestigious post, Sinuhe suffers through a botched romance and the death of his adoptive parents. Despondent, he leaves the Pharaoh's court to bury his loved ones, and, in the process, incurs the wrath of Akhnaton. …

Israel says it will allow two trucks of fuel a day into Gaza
By Ali Abbas Ahmadi BBC News
Israel says it will allow two trucks carrying Diesel Fuel to enter the Gaza Strip each day.
None of that fuel however has entered The Territory So Far on Friday, the UN's agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa) told The Bbc .
The Agency 's chief had warned yesterday it may have to suspend all of its activities due to the lack of fuel.
Israel's announcement comes in response to a US request to allow fuel into the besieged Palestinian enclave.
The fuel will be used to support the UN in providing water and sanitation, according to an Israeli official.
The tankers will pass through the Rafah crossing to the civilian population in the southern Gaza Strip via the UN, provided that it does not reach Hamas, the official said.
Israel's Kan news agency reported that each delivery will amount to about 60,000 litres of fuel A Day .
This is just over a third of what Unrwa says it needs. In its latest situation report, The Agency said it requires "160,000 litres of fuel Every Day for basic humanitarian operations".
The Israeli official said the fuel was intended to support water, sewage and sanitation systems, in order to prevent the outbreak of epidemics that could spread in the area.
International organisations have repeatedly expressed grave concerns over the humanitarian situation unfolding the Gaza Strip .
The World Health Organization (WHO) has previously warned of " worrying trends" in the spread of disease in Gaza, where the lack of fuel and Israeli bombardment have severely disrupted the healthcare system and sanitation facilities.
Earlier today, Richard Peeperkorn, The Who 's representative in the Palestinian Territories said that More Than 70,000 cases of acute respiratory infections and over 44,000 cases of diarrhoea had been recorded, according to Reuters - Figures significantly higher than expected.
More on Israel-Gaza warFuel is needed in Gaza to run The Enclave 's desalination plant, to provide electricity to homes and hospitals, and for sanitation, transport, and communications infrastructure.
It is also crucial in getting humanitarian aid into The Enclave . Data from The Egyptian Red Crescent and Unrwa indicates that no trucks carrying any sort of aid had entered the Gaza Strip for The Past Three Days due to the lack of fuel.
Israel has been blocking fuel from entering Gaza, arguing that it could be stolen by Hamas and used for military purposes.
Before the latest war Israel provided the majority of Gaza's electricity, and some was produced by The Enclave 's sole Power Plant which is no longer functioning.
Israel's latest siege and military operation began following Hamas's brutal 7 October attack, when The Group - which is banned as a terrorist organisation by the UK, US and other Powers - killed around 1,200 people and took More Than 230 people hostage, according to Israeli authorities.
At least 12,000 people have been killed in The Territory since Israel began its retaliatory strikes, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in the Palestinian enclave.
