Last update: 2 hours ago

Energy Security: ADNOC says the UAE’s new West-East crude pipeline bypassing the Strait of Hormuz is now “almost 50% complete,” with delivery pushed toward a 2027 start, as the company warns global oil flows could take months to recover after the Iran war. Nuclear Tensions: The UAE again demanded Iraq act “immediately” to stop drone attacks after Barakah was hit, while the UN nuclear watchdog and diplomats raised fresh safety concerns. Trade & Diplomacy: Britain sealed a landmark GCC free-trade deal, cutting £580m in tariffs on UK goods to the region, and the UAE is also pushing deeper India ties, targeting $200bn trade by 2032. Labour Rules: The UAE set a unified private-sector salary deadline: pay by the 1st of every month from June 1, 2026, or face escalating penalties. Tech & Services: DEWA became the first UAE government entity to adopt Microsoft 365 Copilot Cowork, aiming to move AI from “info” to day-to-day task execution. Culture & Tourism: Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi won the world’s best theme park title at the 2026 Liseberg Applause Awards.
