Egyptian President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi presided on Saturday over the inauguration of the King Salman University in the resort city of Sharm El-Sheikh.

The ceremony was attended by Governor of the Tabuk region Prince Fahd bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and several ministers and senior officials.

King Salman International University is among the major projects aimed at developing the Sinai Peninsula. The university boasts 15 faculties distributed among its three branches in El-Tor, Ras Sedr, and Sharm El-Sheikh and can accommodate 30,000 students, reported local Egyptian media.

Sisi inaugurated several other projects during his visit to Sharm El-Sheikh.

More than 90 people have been killed in Gaza by Israeli strikes in the last 48 hours, Gaza’s Health Ministry said Saturday.
The ministry does not differentiate between civilians and combatants.
The dead include at least 15 people killed overnight, among them women and children, some of who were sheltering in a designated humanitarian zone, according to hospital staff.
Israel is ramping up attacks across Gaza as it tries to pressure Hamas to release its hostages and disarm. Israel has said it plans to occupy large “security zones” inside Gaza.
