UAE poet's death prompts calls for UN probe

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.

Flight ETD827 is descending toward Abu Dhabi at 984 feet, heading westbound, while ETD104A is climbing out of the city at 1,950 feet, per recent aviation data.
