  Read more DUBAI / ABU DHABI  — The security landscape in the Gulf has shifted into a high-alert phase this week as the United Arab Emirates (UAE) actively interceptedu multiple incoming projectiles launched from Iran. This military escalation follows a direct exchange of hostilities between United States forces and Iranian units, marking a significant breakdown in regional stability.

Interceptions were confirmed over several emirates, signaling a robust defense of UAE sovereignty. Strategic...

NEW YORK — Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has appeared before a United States federal court following his recent arrest and extradition, according to reports from international media outlets. Maduro was transported under heavy security to a federal courthouse in New York for an initial court appearance. The development marks a rare and significant moment in international criminal proceedings involving a sitting head of state.
