Salwa Habib

A university professor and researcher at the Institute of African Studies at Cairo University. She was known for her bold research that addressed Zionist penetration in Africa and revealed the dimensions of this penetration and its impact on Arab and African interests. She focused on Israeli-African relations and how Israel exploited the continent's resources, which made her a controversial figure and a target of criticism from many parties.

Her assassination: Dr. Salwa Habib was found murdered in her home in mysterious circumstances in 1996. Her body was found tied up and showed signs of torture. The incident raised many questions about the connection between her murder and her research and writings, especially since there are widespread doubts that she paid with her life for what she revealed in her famous book "Zionist Penetration in Africa". The book shed light on Israeli influence in the African continent and its impact on regional policies.
