UAE Central Bank fines exchange houses $1.12m for anti-money laundering violations
The Central Bank of the UAE has imposed financial penalties totalling AED4.1m ($1.12m) on three exchange houses for failing to comply with anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorism financing (CFT) regulations.

UAE rescues 22 crew from ship after Red Sea attack
A UAE rescue mission brought the 22 crew members of a stricken commercial ship to safety after it came under attack in the Red Sea on Sunday. The Safeen Prism ship, operated by Abu Dhabi Ports Group, responded to a distress call from the Liberian-flagged vessel Magic Seas. A fire broke out on the vessel, causing the crew to abandon ship, the UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) had previously said on social media. The agency said an armed security team on the vessel had returned fire after an initial attack of gunfire and rocket-propelled grenades. Security firm Ambrey said the vessel fits the typical profile of a Houthi target. Ambrey said two drone boats struck the ship, while another two were destroyed by armed guards on board the Magic Seas. Moammar Al Eryani, Information Minister for Yemen's internationally recognised exiled government based in Saudi Arabia, blamed the Iran-backed Houthi rebels for the attack. In a statement on Monday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that the UAE's response operation successfully rescued all 22 aboard the vessel, consisting of crew and security personnel. "The rescue operation was carried out in close co-ordination with specialised maritime authorities, including UKMTO and the relevant international organisations, in accordance with the highest standards of safety and emergency response," the ministry said, in a statement shared by the state news agency Wam. "The swift action reflects the UAE's steadfast commitment to the safety and security of international maritime navigation and its humanitarian solidarity with all nations in addressing the increasing challenges in strategic waterways."

Iran 'ready to hold talks' with US over nuclear programme, Pezeshkian says
Iran is ready to resume talks with the US over the future of its nuclear programme, President Masoud Pezeshkian has said, adding that Israel had 'torpedoed the negotiating table'. Speaking to American journalist Tucker Carlson in an interview that aired on Monday, Mr Pezeshkian noted that while Iran was willing to return to allowing supervision of its programme, its nuclear infrastructure was 'severely damaged' by recent US strikes. 'We don't have any access to them,' he said. 'We have to wait for it and to see what happens and how much they have been damaged, so that we can go for the supervision.' Iran and the US had been in the process of negotiating a new deal to put limits on Tehran's nuclear programme in exchange for sanctions relief. President Donald Trump withdrew from the original deal during his first term, but expressed his desire earlier this year to come to a new agreement. The two sides had held several rounds of indirect talks in Muscat and Rome, with Oman as mediator, when Israel launched a 'pre-emptive' strike on Iran's nuclear infrastructure. Mr Pezeshkian said the US team told Iran during the negotiations that 'as long as we don't give the permission to Israel, they are not going to attack you'. 'We were sitting at the negotiating table when it happened, and by doing this, they totally ruined and destroyed diplomacy,' he said, accusing Israel of attempting to drag the US into 'forever wars'. 'How are we going to trust the United States again? We re-enter the negotiations, then how can we know for sure that in the middle of the talks, the Israeli regime will not be given the permission again to attack?' Still, the President said Iran was 'ready to hold talks over' the future of the nuclear programme. 'We have never been the party that has run away from verification. We stand ready to have these supervisions,' he said.' Carlson pointed out that Mr Pezeshkian had approved a law suspending co-operation with the UN's nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency. The agency is responsible for monitoring Iran's nuclear programme amid concerns that it is trying to build a nuclear weapon – something Tehran has continuously denied. Mr Pezeshkian said Iranians were 'pessimistic' about the activities of the IAEA following a report that he claims gave Israel the excuse to attack Iran's nuclear facilities. 'The IAEA failed to condemn these attacks or try to anyway to stop them. And this ran counter to the international law, and this resulted in a widespread lack of trust among the Iranians,' he said. The US has condemned Iran's move to stop co-operating with the IAEA. With regard to the US and future relations, Mr Pezeshkian emphasised the need for Washington to respect Iran's rights. 'I believe that the United States' President can very well guide the region and the world to peace and tranquillity, or, on the other hand, to lead it to forever wars,' he said.
