UAE: Gang of four faces trial for stealing 20 MacBook Pro laptops

Four men face trial at the Dubai Criminal Court for allegedly stealing 20 MacBook Pro laptops from two employees of an electronics trading company during a delivery in Al Baraha area. According to police investigations, the company had tasked two of its staff with delivering the laptops to another firm located in in Al Baraha. When the employees arrived at the location, they were approached by four men who falsely claimed to be expecting the delivery. The suspects took the laptops, tied the two employees to chairs, and fled the scene. The victims managed to alert Dubai Police, who immediately responded to the scene. Officers lifted fingerprints and reviewed surveillance footage to identify the suspects. A manhunt was then launched to track down the culprits. Police first arrested one of the suspects, who later cooperated and led officers to another accomplice. The remaining two were eventually tracked down and taken into custody. During questioning, all four men confessed to the robbery. Police were also able to recover all 20 stolen laptops, which the suspects intended to sell at reduced prices to another electronics company.

However, once she arrived, he distracted her, stole the device, and fled the location. Dubai Police later arrested the suspect and recovered the stolen laptop, even though it had already been sold. The Dubai Misdemeanours Court found him guilty of theft and ordered his immediate deportation after his prison term was completed.

Arab Group calls on UN Security Council to bring end to 'catastrophic' Gaza war

The Arab Group called on the UN Security Council on Friday to take urgent action to halt Israel's 'catastrophic' war in Gaza. The group of Arab states also demanded an end to Israel's blockade of the enclave and the lifting of restrictions on humanitarian aid, as UN officials say the entire population faces famine. Israel has faced mounting international pressure over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where the UN says only a 'teaspoon' of aid has been allowed in after a more than two-month blockade. Speaking on behalf of the Arab Group as chairman for the month of May, the UAE's UN envoy Mohamed Abushahab accused Israel of using starvation as 'a weapon of war' and rejected its proposed aid mechanism, calling it a breach of international law. The US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which began operations this week, distributes aid through several 'secure' sites – manned by private security contractors – with the aim of keeping supplies out of the hands of Hamas. The mechanism cuts out traditional UN and other aid distributors, and critics have accused it of militarising humanitarian assistance. 'Palestinian lives are not less valuable than any other lives,' Mr Abushahab told reporters in New York. Negotiations to end nearly 20 months of war in Gaza have so far failed to achieve a breakthrough, with Israel resuming military operations in March following a short-lived truce. But a new proposal submitted by the US was approved by Israel on Thursday, and Hamas has said it is reviewing it. Palestine's deputy ambassador Majed Bamya said that international condemnation of Israel's actions in Gaza was insufficient. 'There is international outrage, but our outrage is not good enough,' Mr Bamya told reporters. 'It's not good enough for the people of Gaza to know that the world condemns this action, condemns these crimes, stands against them. We need actions.' He accused Israel of attempting to forcibly erase the Palestinian cause and people, warning that such efforts would fail. Mr Bamya also pushed back against expectations that Palestinians should endure the crisis alone. 'The world cannot expect Palestinians to be superheroes, that they need to resist all of this on their own, that they need to figure out the way to survive, that they need to figure out how to stay in their land,' he said. 'Israel wants to convince them that if they want life, they can only find it away from them.' This week, Israel announced the creation of 22 new settlements in the West Bank. On Friday, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz vowed to build a 'Jewish Israeli state' in the Palestinian territory which Israel has occupied since 1967. Britain called the move a 'deliberate obstacle' to Palestinian statehood, and UN chief Antonio Guterres's spokesman said it pushed efforts towards a two-state solution 'in the wrong direction'. Mr Abushahab said the Arab Group looks forward to the upcoming conference in June on the two-state solution co-chaired by Saudi Arabia and France as it is 'critical' for member states take concrete actions to advance sustainable peace. 'We salute those countries that recognised the state of Palestine and strongly encourage others to follow their example,' he said. 'Recognition is not just a symbolic gesture; it is a concrete step for the just and lasting peace.'
