Avoid using lights near beaches at night during turtle nesting season: MoECC
DOHA: The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change (MoECC) has appealed to the people to avoid using lights near the beaches at night during the turtle nesting season. These lights can disorient young turtles and cause them to lose their way to the sea, exposing them to the risks of predation or death, the ministry said in a social media post. MoECC officially launched the 2025 Sea Turtle Nesting Season in April at Fuwairit Beach in the presence of Minister of Environment and Climate Change HE Dr Abdullah bin Abdulaziz bin Turki Al Subaie. This initiative came as part of the ministry's ongoing efforts to protect Qatar's wildlife and preserve biodiversity - particularly endangered species such as the hawksbill sea turtle. The national project, now in its third decade and implemented in collaboration with Qatar University, QatarEnergy, and several national entities, has resulted in the successful release of tens of thousands of hatchlings into their natural habitat - significantly contributing to the restoration of Qatar's marine life. This approach aligns with Qatar National Vision 2030, which places environmental sustainability at the heart of national priorities. Hawksbill turtles return annually to Qatar's northern beaches - including Fuwairit, Ras Laffan, Al Ghariyah, and Al Huwailah - as well as several islands such as Umm Tais, Ras Rakan, Shura'awa, and Halul. The nesting season runs from early April to late June, with hatchlings emerging about two months after eggs are laid.

Qatar Charity Eid project brings cheer to people in Sudan, Chad
Tribune News Network Doha With the generous support of donors in Qatar, Qatar Charity's (QC) annual Eid Al Adha initiative in Sudan and Chad, reached the most vulnerable communities through the distribution of Udhiyah. The campaign was part of Qatar Charity's broader seasonal efforts for 2025 (1446 AH) to bring hope and joy to those most in need around the world. In Sudan, the initiative focused on regions affected by conflict and displacement. Working hand in hand with local authorities and humanitarian partners, Qatar Charity distributed meat from 160 Udhiyah to more than 1,600 beneficiaries primarily internally displaced persons, refugees, and impoverished families. Field teams from Qatar Charity visited the distribution points, taking part in the process and witnessing firsthand the impact of the campaign. Joy was evident on the faces of recipients who welcomed the aid with gratitude and warm prayers for the people of Qatar. Local officials praised the charity's transparent and organized approach, which ensures that help reaches those who need it most. Meanwhile in Chad, Qatar Charity implemented the project across several regions including the capital, N'Djamena. The campaign benefited over 17,640 individuals through the distribution of 105,840 kilograms of meat, sourced from 1,776 Udhiyah. Local partners and officials in Chad commended the initiative, noting its deep impact on underserved communities and its role in bringing a sense of dignity and joy during Eid. For many of the beneficiaries, especially those in refugee camps or impoverished neighbourhoods, this year's Eid was unlike any other. The gift of meat, which many families had not tasted for months, turned their Eid into a moment of celebration. One refugee in Chad expressed his gratitude, saying: 'I never expected we'd have meat this Eid. This is a blessing from God, and we thank the people of Qatar for remembering us.' Local leaders described the campaign as a powerful message of solidarity from Qatar, reflecting the values of compassion, generosity, and shared humanity. Through this initiative, Qatar Charity once again affirmed its commitment to supporting vulnerable communities around the world not just with aid, but with hope.
