Briefly noted: Tehran is grumpy with us (shocker), El Sisi meets Bahrain's FM, India wants to talk textile ties

Otherwise worth noting in brief this morning:

• Egypt and Saudi Arabia’s “anti-Iran” claims are “groundless, bogus, and an insistence on the past harmful mistakes,” Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi said, according to Tasnim News Agency.
• President Abdel Fattah El Sisi met with Bahrain’s Foreign Minister Sheikh Khalid bin Ahmad Al Khalifa on Thursday to discuss regional issues and ways to combat terrorism, according to an Ittihadiya statement.
• India wants to further strengthen its ties with Egypt in textiles through trade and investment, Fibre2Fashion reports.
