5,500-Year-Old Mummy Draws Crowds at British Museum

The “Gebelein Man,” a 5,500-year-old mummy discovered in the Gebelein region of Egypt, is a major attraction at the British Museum in London, England. The mummy, known as the “Red Man” due to the red tint of his hair, was naturally preserved under desert sands and was found with a fatal wound on its right shoulder. In 2012, the mummy underwent tomography to gather detailed information about its condition. Museum officials remark that it’s one of the oldest remains in their collection.

Israeli Ambassador Yuval Waks faced strong protests during a planned speech at Cheikh Anta Diop University (UCAD) in Dakar, Senegal. Students chanted “Free Palestine,” “Free Gaza,” and “Israel is a war criminal,” while waving Palestinian flags and booing the ambassador.

Waks, who was invited to speak at a conference on international relations, was unable to deliver his speech due to the protest. He left the campus as students continued to follow and denounce him. UCAD is Senegal’s largest and most prominent university.
