Last update: 10 hours ago

Regional Security: Bahrain condemned the deadly attack on Dammam’s King Fahd International Airport, which killed two people and injured eight, and voiced solidarity with Saudi Arabia amid escalating Houthi strikes. Digital Economy: Bahrain’s iGA renewed its partnership with Computer World to strengthen government cloud services, while KPMG and Microsoft launched a collaboration to help local financial firms scale up AI. Healthcare: M42’s new AI clinical platform is now operating at seven facilities in the UAE and Bahrain, aiming to cut doctors’ administrative workload. Economic Outlook: The IMF expects Bahrain’s economy to suffer a double-digit contraction in 2026 as war disrupts energy production, shipping, tourism and trade across the region. Business: Zain Bahrain reported BD4.27 million in profit for the first nine months of the year.
