Last update: 3 hours ago

Regional Security: Bahrain welcomed the UN Security Council’s condemnation of Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia, reaffirming that the kingdom’s security is integral to Bahrain’s. Banking: NBB added two Euromoney honours for ESG and corporate banking, bringing its 2026 total to three. Parliament: MPs are set to debate extending the deadline to challenge criminal orders from seven days to a month; a separate proposal would require private healthcare providers to employ at least 50% Bahrainis where qualified candidates are available. Business: Bahrain will host the Arab Insurance Federation’s 2028 conference, expected to draw more than 3,000 delegates. Transport: The University of Bahrain plans a new eastern gate, with work tentatively due to start in February 2027 to improve campus access and ease congestion.
