Last update: an hour ago

Modi’s UAE stopover: Prime Minister Narendra Modi landed in Abu Dhabi to kick off a five-nation tour, with F-16 jets escorting his aircraft and talks with President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan focused on energy security, defence cooperation and trade—while Modi condemned attacks on the UAE and urged peace in West Asia. Hormuz pressure: As tensions around the Strait of Hormuz stay high, India also reiterated its top priority: a “free, open and safe” strait, amid reports of a ship seized near UAE waters and another incident off Oman that rattled markets. Energy moves: Mubadala Energy backed $9.75bn in financing for a US LNG project, while Abu Dhabi said it will fast-track a West-East oil pipeline through Fujairah to boost exports and bypass Hormuz by 2027. Diplomacy friction: At BRICS in New Delhi, Iran and the UAE traded sharp accusations, underscoring widening splits inside the bloc. Local business & life: Aldar launched Al Ghadeer Gardens (437 homes), and UAE boardrooms are feeling AI pressure as CEOs chase measurable results.
