(6.Februar) The Institute of National Security Strategies (INSS), one of Israel‘s leading think tanks, urged decision-making circles in Tel Aviv to increase military, intelligence and political assistance to Sisi‘s regime so as to enable it to win over Islamists in Egypt and Sinai.

In a research paper published on its website on Wednesday entitled „Egypt‘s war in the Sinai Peninsula: A Struggle that Goes beyond Egypt“, INSS stressed that it is important for Israel to employ its political and diplomatic capabilities in order to convince the United States to enhance its support for Sisi‘s regime.
