The Lebanese committee for the Abd El-Naser Prize granted the prize, worth $130,000, to Egyptian writer Mohammed Hassanein Heikel for his contributions to deepening Arab thought. Heikel announced his acceptance of the prize, which will be delivered on July 26, the anniversary of nationalizing the Suez Canal. Yet Heikel refused to accepting the financial prize and asked for the sum to be dedicated to supporting the committee's work.
