According to published reports, at least seven Iraqi Christians have
been killed in recent days and as many as 3,000 Iraqi Christians have
fled the northern Iraqi city of Mosul due to severe pressure from

"WHY IS THAT?"by the children and for the children - September 16, 2008
An uninhibited thirst for knowledge is the single most common

receive from our young viewers, mainly between the age of 7 and 14. The
program is hosted by Essam Nagy from Egypt, as the amicable character

known and loved from the popular children's show, "As-Sanabel."
Lebanon Office all set for more and better live programs! - September 16, 2008
The value and appeal of live productions is undisputed. That is why our
SAT-7 Lebanon Office regularly rented satellite uplink services in the
past, in order to be able to include one live program in its schedule
per week. Now we are happy to announce that those challenging days are
nearly over! The arrival of a brand new, vehicle mounted Satellite News
Gathering (SNG) dish will vastly enhance the number and quality of live
programs produced in the country.
