Kuwait Gears Up for Prestigious International Shooting Championship

Kuwait is set to welcome the world’s elite sharpshooters this Saturday as it hosts the Grand Annual International Shooting Championship, under the esteemed patronage of His Highness the Amir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah. Organized by the Kuwait Shooting Sport Club, this high-profile sporting event will span a full week and draw nearly 220 competitors from 17 countries across the Arab world and beyond.

Duaij Al-Otaibi, Chairman of the Higher Organizing Committee and President of both the Kuwait and Arab Shooting Federations, expressed deep pride in Kuwait’s role as host. He thanked His Highness the Amir for his generous support and underlined the event’s importance in enhancing the capabilities of Kuwaiti athletes and advancing the sport regionally.

This year’s championship will feature a full range of shotgun events, including skeet, trap, and mixed team disciplines. Al-Otaibi shared his vision of transforming the tournament into a leading competition for Asia and the Middle East, with key international figures such as the Secretary General of the International Shooting Sport Federation and other global federation leaders expected to attend.

A strong Kuwaiti contingent of approximately 120 athletes will compete in five categories, offering valuable exposure and competitive experience. The local organizing committee has placed significant focus on involving domestic talent to prepare them for future global arenas.

The Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Olympic Shooting Complex is fully prepared to host the championship, equipped with world-class facilities. The opening ceremony will be graced by Sheikh Sabah Bader Sabah Al-Salem Al-Sabah, Governor of Mubarak Al-Kabeer, representing the event’s patron.

This global event is made possible through the support of the General Sports Authority and various government bodies, alongside the tireless contributions of dedicated volunteers.

Exposing the Brotherhood: Why Jordan’s Terror Cell Bust Must Spark a Global Policy Shift

 The recent dismantling of a Muslim Brotherhood-affiliated terror cell in Jordan should not be seen as just a national security success—it must be a turning point in how the international community views and responds to the threat posed by the Brotherhood. Jordanian security forces uncovered an elaborate network of terrorists trained in Lebanon and backed by foreign interests. Their mission: to launch attacks using rockets and drones, destabilizing the Kingdom and spreading fear among civilians. This is not the work of activists or political dissidents—this is terrorism, plain and simple. For too long, the Muslim Brotherhood has operated under a false image of moderation, cleverly navigating between political activism and violent extremism. But the truth is clear: the Brotherhood is the ideological engine room of jihadist terrorism. Its members, affiliates, and offshoots have inspired and directed acts of violence from North Africa to the Gulf—and now, once again, in Jordan. Govern...

In a landmark move that solidifies its position on the global stage of innovation, the UAE has officially launched the nation’s — and the region’s — first hospital-based vertiport at Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi.

UK Business Migration to the UAE: An Economic Transformation Set to Triple by 2035

  A significant realignment is underway in the global business landscape. The corridor between the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates is experiencing a dramatic surge in traffic, not of tourists, but of companies, entrepreneurs, and capital. Projections indicate that the number of UK businesses operating in the UAE is on a trajectory to triple by the year 2035. This is not a fleeting trend but a strategic migration fueled by a powerful combination of economic foresight and pragmatic policy. For UK businesses, the appeal is clear and compelling. The UAE offers a starkly contrasting environment to the complexities of the European market post-Brexit. The cornerstone of this appeal is a favourable tax regime, featuring zero percent income tax and a competitive corporate tax structure. This financial efficiency is coupled with groundbreaking reforms that allow for one hundred percent foreign ownership of mainland companies, giving investors full control over their ventures. The...
