Scheduled for completion by 2028, the 725-meter high, 131+ story tower offers an exquisite mix of residential, hotel, retail and entertainment spaces. An ultra luxury mall, home to most high-end fashion brands, will occupy the retail section. The residential section will include luxurious one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments.

Moving up, the luxury apartments will be topped by ultra luxury penthouses, ranging from one to five-bedroom units and enjoying exclusive access to all amenities. Separate lobbies will serve the residences and the penthouse units.
Up even higher along this vertical world is an all-suite seven-star hotel, set to become a major attraction that will take Dubai's standards of luxury and opulence to new heights. Inspired by seven cultural themes – Arabic, Chinese, Persian, Indian, Turkish, French and Russian – the hotel will offer a new standard in comfort and hospitality, including culturally styled restaurants for each cultural theme. An authentic Emirati restaurant will be another key feature of the hotel. Moreover, the hotel will include a luxury ballroom and a beach club.

At the top, the building will also house a special museum that will showcase the chronology of the building's evolution, recognising personalities involved through multimedia exhibits, including photo, video and graphics.

BIG Reimagines Dubai's Jebel Ali Racecourse as an Urban Oasis
BIG–Bjarke Ingels plans to transform Dubai's Jebel Ali Racecourse into a vibrant, walkable district centered on community life. Jun 21, 2025 In partnership with Dubai-based developer A.R.M. Holding, architecture firm BIG has unveiled a masterplan to redevelop the 5-square-kilometre Jebel Ali site into a pedestrian-oriented urban district. The design aligns with the Dubai 2040 Urban Vision and focuses on mobility, environmental performance, and livability. At the centre of the project is a large public park that runs through eight distinct neighbourhoods, creating a green corridor surrounded by shaded plazas and walkable streets. The plan integrates natural elements with infrastructure to support more accessible and climate-conscious urban living. The site's existing racetrack will be retained and incorporated into the development, acknowledging the location's heritage while introducing new public facilities, cultural institutions, and civic spaces. The layout is designed as a series of urban clusters surrounded by green space, offering visual and physical links to the central park. Transport within the district will rely on an automated system to minimise car use and promote alternative mobility options such as walking and cycling. The design incorporates passive cooling features, shaded areas, and desert-inspired landscaping to create more comfortable outdoor environments throughout the year. 'This project is an archipelago of urban islands in a sea of green—reimagining the site not as a collection of objects in isolation, but as a living landscape of interconnected communities,' BIG founder Bjarke Ingels says. Construction is set to begin in early 2026. The Jebel Ali project is intended to inform future urban developments in Dubai, particularly in areas of walkability, integration, and environmental adaptability.

Trump grants TikTok another 90-day extension in enforcement of sale-or-ban law
TikTok just got another lifeline from the White House, with President Donald Trump set to delay enforcement of the sale-or-ban law by another 90 days. 'President Trump will sign an additional Executive Order this week to keep TikTok up and running,' Karoline Leavitt, White House press secretary, said in a statement on Tuesday. 'As he has said many times, President Trump does not want TikTok to go dark. This extension will last 90 days, which the Administration will spend working to ensure this deal is closed so that the American people can continue to use TikTok with the assurance that their data is safe and secure.' On Thursday, Trump confirmed that he'd signed an executive order delaying enforcement of the law by 90 days in a Truth Social post. The deadline for TikTok parent company ByteDance to hand over control of TikTok's US operations is now September 17. It's been about five months since a law requiring TikTok to be banned in the United States unless it's sold off by its China-based parent company technically went into effect. But thanks to President Donald Trump's promises not to enforce the law, neither of those things have happened, aside from an approximately 14-hour blackout in January. Tuesday's announcement marks Trump's third extension of the ban. The announcement means that the app will remain accessible for its 170 million American users despite the legislation that passed last year with bipartisan support over concerns that TikTok's Chinese ownership poses a US national security risk. And it comes as both the United States and China seek leverage in tense trade talks, in which TikTok appears to have become a bargaining chip. The TikTok sale-or-ban law went into effect on January 19 after it was signed by former President Joe Biden last year. TikTok briefly took itself offline, sparking outcry from creators, but quickly came back after Trump signed an order delaying the ban's enforcement by 75 days. It was one of his first acts as president, made in hopes of reaching a deal to keep the app 'alive.' In April, a deal that would have transferred majority control of TikTok's US operations to American ownership was nearly finalized. But it fell apart after Trump announced additional tariffs on China, forcing the president to announce another 75-day delay to keep the app operational in the United States. 'There are key matters to be resolved. Any agreement will be subject to approval under Chinese law,' TikTok parent company ByteDance said after Trump's tariff policy stalled progress on the deal in April. That pause was set to expire on June 19, before Trump's Thursday executive order. . Trump's latest enforcement delay raises questions about the status of a deal that could secure TikTok's long-term future in the United States. The Chinese government has offered little public indication that it would be willing to approve a sale beyond suggesting that any deal could not include TikTok's 'algorithm,' which has been called the app's secret sauce. In a statement on Thursday, TikTok indicated that it is still in talks with the office of Vice President JD Vance — who Trump appointed to oversee the effort — on a deal that would secure the popular short-form video platform's future in the United States. 'We are grateful for President Trump's leadership and support in ensuring that TikTok continues to be available for more than 170 million American users and 7.5 million U.S. businesses that rely on the platform as we continue to work with Vice President Vance's Office,' TikTok said in a statement. The new extension comes after the United States and China agreed on a framework to ease export controls, a move that's expected to ease tensions and prevent further escalation of export and other restrictions between the two countries. It's not clear whether a TikTok deal is included in the framework, but cooperation between the two sides could make an agreement to transfer control of the app to a US buyer more likely. Earlier on Tuesday, Trump told reporters that a TikTok deal would 'probably' require approval by the Chinese government and said, 'I think we'll get it.' 'I think President Xi will ultimately approve it, yes,' the US president added. The deal that had been in the making earlier this year would have involved several American venture capital funds, private equity firms and tech giants investing in a company that would control TikTok's US operations. TikTok's China-based owner, ByteDance, would have retained a 20% stake in the spinoff company — a key stipulation of the law. Several other high-profile bidders had also put their hands up to acquire the platform, including a group led by billionaire Frank McCourt and 'Shark Tank'-famous investor Kevin O'Leary, Amazon, AI firm Perplexity and a separate group of investors that included YouTube and TikTok star Jimmy Donaldson, known online as MrBeast. It was Trump who first tried to ban TikTok during his previous administration, but he has said he changed his mind after he 'got to use it.' TikTok CEO Shou Chew attended Trump's inauguration, seated on stage alongside Cabinet secretaries and other tech CEOs.

Iran Maintains Oil Exports during Conflict with Israel
Taarek Refaat As tensions between Iran and Israel escalate into direct military confrontation, Tehran is quietly repositioning its oil export strategy to protect a crucial revenue stream and navigate tightening U.S. sanctions. According to two ship-tracking firms that spoke with Reuters, Iran is continuing to export crude oil largely unabated, using a "shadow fleet" of tankers and adapting its loading operations to minimize risk. While missile exchanges between the two adversaries have targeted strategic energy infrastructure — including Israel's Haifa oil refinery and Iran's South Pars gas field — Iran's main crude terminal on Kharg Island remains intact. Recent data from energy analytics firm Kpler shows that Iran has loaded 2.2 million barrels of crude per day so far this week, the highest volume in over a month. The loading operations have shifted exclusively to the island's eastern jetty, a move seen as a precaution amid ongoing hostilities. Floating storage allows Iran to respond quickly to market demand and sidestep sanctions enforcement by disguising cargo origins or swapping cargo at sea. This flexibility becomes even more valuable during wartime or geopolitical instability. Despite the reimposed U.S. sanctions — and additional restrictions targeting Chinese refiners since March — Iranian oil exports have remained resilient. The International Energy Agency (IEA) reported on Tuesday that exports have held steady at around 1.7 million barrels per day throughout 2025. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand
