Last update: 6 hours ago

Gold Watch: Gold prices across the Middle East are holding steady on 22 May, with 24K around AED 547.50/gram in the UAE and SAR 561 in Saudi—buyers still showing healthy demand despite elevated levels. Hormuz Tolls Clash: Iran and Oman are reportedly discussing a fee system for ships passing the Strait of Hormuz, but Trump says the US opposes tolls and Rubio warns a toll deal would make a US agreement “unfeasible,” while uranium demands keep talks fragile. Maritime Pressure: US Marines boarded an Iranian-flagged tanker in the Gulf of Oman as part of sanctions enforcement, redirecting it under altered course conditions. Oman Aviation Boost: Oman Air launches direct Muscat–Tashkent flights from 2 June (3x weekly). Dhofar Connectivity: Etihad begins Abu Dhabi–Salalah seasonal service for Khareef Dhofar 2026, adding more flights from mid-June. Heritage Find: Rare prehistoric rock carvings were discovered in Oman’s Hajar Al-Sinanat region. UK-GCC Trade Deal: The UK and GCC concluded a landmark free trade agreement, with Oman included, aiming to lift trade and investment ties.
