Dubai Basketball Club set for historic EuroLeague debut
Dubai Basketball Club has been selected to compete in the prestigious EuroLeague for the first time, after the organisers announced its expansion from 18 to 20 teams in late May. Making the announcement, Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, President of the UAE Olympic Committee and Chairman of the Dubai Sports Council, expressed Dubai's confidence at "establishing itself as a global force in sport". Established in 2023, Dubai Basketball Club has swiftly proven its ability to take on top-tier domestic and international opponents. 'In just two years, the club has demonstrated that it can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the sport's elite,' Sheikh Mansoor added. 'Its debut in the EuroLeague will not only add strength to the competition, but also inspire athletes across the UAE to pursue their dreams on the international stage." It follows a historic debut season in the ABA League for the team. It made an impressive run to the playoff semi-finals, showcasing talent and determination before facing European powerhouse and season champions Partizan. Finishing third overall, the team not only exceeded expectations but also established a strong foundation for what promises to be a landmark season in the club's journey. 'I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to the leadership of Dubai and the Dubai Sports Council for their unwavering support,' said Abdulla Saeed Juma Al Naboodah, Chairman and Founder. Coached by Jurica Golemac, the Club's multicultural roster features standout players from the UAE, the Philippines, the US, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Jordan, Turkey, Latvia, Italy, Bosnia and France. It will play 38 regular-season games at Dubai's Coca-Cola Arena from September to June, and share the court with global powerhouses such as Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, Olympiacos and Fenerbahçe. Fans can register online to attend the 2025/26 season games on the Coca-Cola Arena website.

Ukraine asks allies to allocate 0.25% of GDP to boost its weapon production
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on Ukraine's Western partners to allocate 0.25 per cent of their GDP to helping Kyiv ramp up weapons production and said the country plans to sign agreements this summer to start exporting weapon production technologies. In remarks released for publication by his office on Saturday, Zelenskyy said Ukraine was in talks with Denmark, Norway, Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom and Lithuania to launch joint weapon production. "Ukraine is part of Europe's security and we want 0.25% of the GDP of a particular partner country to be allocated for our defence industry and domestic production," Zelenskyy said. As the war with a bigger and better-equipped Russia has intensified in recent weeks, Ukraine's need for new weapons and ammunition is constantly growing. This year Kyiv had secured $43 billion to finance its domestic weapon production, Zelenskyy said. Member nations of the NATO military alliance are expected to meet next week in The Hague, to discuss higher defence spending. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has proposed that countries should each agree to spend 5 per cent of their GDP on defence and security measures. Zelenskyy said he was likely to visit the NATO summit, adding that several meetings with Western leaders had been set up on the sidelines. He also said that he hoped to meet US President Donald Trump. Last week, Zelenskyy attended the Group of Seven summit in Canada as he sought to discuss stronger sanctions against Russia and more military support for Ukraine with Trump there. But he failed to meet with the US President as Trump left a day early for Washington to address the Israel-Iran conflict. Ukraine currently covers about 40 per cent of its defence needs with domestic production, and the government is constantly looking for ways to increase production further. Kyiv plans to launch joint weapon production outside of the country and will start exporting some of its military production technologies, Zelenskyy said. "We have launched a programme 'Build with Ukraine' and in summer we will sign relevant agreements to start exporting our technologies abroad in the format of opening production lines in European countries," Zelenskyy said. The discussions focused on producing different types of drones, missiles, and potentially artillery, he added.
