The death of UAE poet and writer Habib al-Sayegh has prompted an advocacy group to call for a United Nations investigation, per Middle East Eye.
Al-Sayegh, known for his critical works, was reportedly detained in March and died in custody, raising concerns over freedom of expression in the UAE, Middle East Eye notes.
Meanwhile, the UAE has sentenced eight individuals to life imprisonment for supplying arms to Sudan’s army, Al Jazeera reports. The case underscores regional tensions and the UAE's role in Middle Eastern conflicts.
