Dubai South Properties has launched South Square, a new luxury residential development located along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, just minutes from the recently announced new terminal at Al Maktoum International Airport.
The S4 Tower within the project was completely sold out within just three hours, the developer said.
The project reinforces Dubai South's vision of creating integrated, people-centric communities and comes in response to strong demand from investors and end-users drawn to the area's growing appeal, it said.
South Square is a community offering over 550 apartments in a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedrooms layouts. Elegantly designed with a focus on wellbeing and convenience, the community blends modern architecture with wellness-inspired amenities such as landscaped outdoor spaces, seed farms, walking trails, scenic water features, a yoga deck, multi-age fitness and leisure zones, as well as essential retail, dining outlets, and co-working spaces.
Designed for families and individuals alike, South Square promotes meaningful connections between people, nature, and healthy living - delivering a residential experience that reflects the evolving expectations of today's urban residents. Prices for units start at AED1.1 million, with completion scheduled for Q4 2028.
Nabil Al Kindi, CEO of Dubai South Properties, said: 'In the past few years, we have witnessed a sharp increase in demand for residential options in Dubai South, driven by its strategic location, modern infrastructure, and exceptional connectivity to the rest of the city. South Square is our response to this momentum—offering spacious homes, wellness-focused amenities, and in proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport and key roads. This project, like all our communities, is designed not just for living, but for enhancing quality of life through value-driven spaces focused on wellness and human connection.'

UAE's Air Arabia To Co-Launch Saudi Low-Cost Airline Flying 81 Routes From Dammam Hub

Saudi Arabia is launching a new national low-cost airline, with operations based out of King Fahd International Airport in Dammam, as part of a broader push to transform the Kingdom into a regional aviation hub. The General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) announced that a consortium led by UAE-based Air Arabia, Kun Investment Holding and Nesma Holding, has won the bid to operate the new carrier. The airline will begin operations with a fleet of 45 aircraft, covering 24 domestic and 57 international destinations, and aims to serve 10 million passengers annually. This expansion is part of Saudi Arabia's National Transport and Logistics Strategy, a key component of Vision 2030, which seeks to diversify the economy and enhance the Kingdom's competitiveness in transport, logistics, and tourism. According to GACA, the new low-cost airline will enhance air connectivity to and from the Eastern Province, improve operational efficiency, and boost seat availability at King Fahd International Airport. The airline is also expected to create more than 2,400 direct jobs and raise service quality across Saudi Arabia's growing aviation market. Air Arabia's inclusion in the consortium reflects its expanding regional footprint and aligns with its strategy of entering high-growth partnerships to serve underserved routes. This latest venture positions the Dammam airport as a growing hub for affordable air travel and supports the Kingdom's goal of moving 100 million passengers annually by the end of the decade.

Viral Dubai Chocolate Replica Recalled

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has issued an urgent recall for a viral Dubai chocolate bar replica in the United Kingdom (UK). The Noesis Schokolade Love of Dubai chocolate bars were recalled following the FSA's discovery of peanuts not listed on the ingredient label. The 95g chocolate bars pose a 'serious risk' to consumers with peanut allergies, according to the FSA's Food Alert for Action notice issued this week. All lot numbers and best before dates of the product are included in the recall. The FSA has been unable to contact Black Sea Trading Ltd, the distributor of the products manufactured by NOESIS SCHOKOLADE, Gida ve Unlu Mam Ltd. Food businesses across the UK have been advised to immediately stop sales and withdraw the products from shelves. 'Don't buy this product, and if you have bought it, don't eat it, especially if you have a peanut allergy. Dispose of the product at home and get in touch with your local Trading Standards in Great Britain or Environmental Health Officers in Northern Ireland, to let them know where you purchased it,' the FSA said in its advisory. The recalled chocolate bar capitalises on the Dubai chocolate trend that gained popularity in 2024. The trend centres around chocolate bars with pistachio filling, originally created by Fix Dessert in Dubai. The phenomenon has received millions of views on TikTok and has driven up global pistachio prices from $7.65 to $10.30 per pound in the year to April, according to a report by The Independent . Last week, the FSA issued a broader warning about imported Dubai chocolate bars sold in the UK. The agency noted that some products may lack complete ingredient lists or allergen labelling because they were not originally intended for UK sale. Some bars may also contain additives and colours not permitted in the UK market. The FSA is working with enforcement authorities to investigate and ensure affected products are removed from the market. The agency is also collaborating with allergy organisations to raise awareness of the issue. UK law requires food labels to highlight any of 14 allergens present in products, but some imported products may not comply with these requirements. The FSA is currently surveying and sampling Dubai-style chocolate products to determine the scale of the issue.

Syria Signs $800M Tartous Port Deal With Dubai-Based Company

Syria has signed an $800-million agreement with Dubai-based DP World to redevelop the Tartous Port, state media reported on Sunday. The deal was signed in Damascus in the presence of self-appointed Syrian interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa. The agreement grants DP World a 30-year term to operate and upgrade Tartous, one of Syria's most strategic coastal hubs. Syrian officials say the deal is part of a wider push to modernize the country's logistics infrastructure. 'This strategic move will bolster our port operations and logistics services,' an unnamed Syrian official told SANA. Qutaiba Badawi, chairman of the General Authority for Land and Sea Ports, called the deal 'a new phase of field and maritime work in Syria.' DP World chairman Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem said the agreement would position Tartous as a global transport node. 'Syria possesses valuable assets,' he said, adding, 'The port of Tartous will be one of the best in the world, particularly in transport and cargo handling services.' According to Badawi, the contract was the result of months of negotiations and was structured to be 'tight, fair and transparent.' The agreement includes infrastructure and technological upgrades to expand Tartous's cargo capacity and support the recovery of Syria's industrial and commercial sectors. The Tartous contract follows a series of high-value agreements signed in recent months, including a 30-year deal with France's CMA CGM to operate Latakia Port and a $7-billion energy contract with Qatari, Turkish, and US firms to restore the power grid. The US lifted most of its sanctions on Syria last month, citing what it called 'positive actions' by Sharaa's administration. US President Donald Trump has revoked the Foreign Terrorist Organization designation for the Nusra Front, later known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), according to a State Department memo filed on 7 July. In December 2024, HTS – under the leadership of Ahmad al-Sharaa (who went by the name Abu Mohammad al-Julani when he was still an ISIS chief) – successfully ousted former Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and took power in Damascus. On June 7, Syria was reinstated to the SWIFT banking system, as Damascus began implementing financial reforms under Central Bank Governor Abdul Qader al-Husriya. The Tartous Port deal comes seven months after HTS declared the ousting of the Assad government following its capture of Damascus and the flight of former president Bashar al-Assad.
