The Luxe Developers' Oceano development sold out
Dubai, United Arab Emirates: The Luxe Developers, the UAE-based real estate development firm, has announced its flagship twin-tower development Oceano, situated on Al Marjan Island, has now sold out, underscoring the project's global appeal and highlighting the demand for ultra-luxury real estate in Ras Al Khaimah.
The announcement follows the historic AED180 million sale of The Celest and The Stellar, two ultra-luxury Sky Villa residences within the development. These residences are the most expensive to be sold in Ras Al Khaimah and are redefining the property landscape in the emirate. Collectively, these exclusive Sky Villa residences span over 43,000 sqft, differentiating them from anything else on the market in terms of space and design.
Shubam Aggarwal, Chairman and Co-owner of The Luxe Developers, said: 'Oceano's sold-out status highlights the global appetite for high-design, privacy-first living while underscoring Al Marjan Island's and Ras Al Khaimah's evolution as a luxury lifestyle destination. Oceano was our first project and a first for Al Marjan Island in shaping the skylines of tomorrow in terms of its iconic design, opulent finishes and top-tier detailing.
'We are committed to setting new standards for architectural brilliance, amenity integration, and service excellence, which is why Oceano was the optimal choice of ultra-high-net-worth investors (UHNWIs), which will be showcased when the project is handed over next year.'
At Oceano, bespoke amenities mean residents will have access to a cigar lounge, a library, and a business lounge. A chauffeur's lounge will also be available, as will a dedicated retail level featuring the best in hospitality, F&B, and leisure. A private beach, children's play area, and pool area will add to the development's family focus.
Designed by the acclaimed Dewan Architects + Engineers and interiors by Hirsch Bedner Associates, Oceano's unique design features floors rotated on a plane, offering panoramic views of the Arabian Gulf. Every unit is configured to ensure total seclusion, including all terraces and balconies. This also extends to the shoreline and beach, providing relaxation in a safe and secure environment.
Construction on Oceano is moving quickly, with all enabling works, including shoring, excavation, and pilling, having been completed. China State Construction Engineering Corporation Middle East was appointed as the main contractor in October 2024. The company focuses on delivering The Luxe Developers' vision of an architectural landmark, and construction is moving into advanced civil works and the vertical building phase.
Siddharta Banerji, Managing Director and Co-owner, added: 'Our strategy was clear from the outset – create timeless spaces that inspire and retain long-term investment value. Oceano proves that ultra-luxury developments in emerging markets like Ras Al Khaimah are as sought-after as those in global metropolitan hubs.
'Backed by a team of seasoned professionals, The Luxe Developers has set new benchmarks for Ras Al Khaimah with our flagship project, Oceano, and we are committed to building future landmarks designed to elevate the UAE's global real estate profile.'
Ras Al Khaimah continues to experience heightened interest from UHNWIs regionally and internationally. With the sale of its most expensive residences, the emirate is holding its own against the more established luxury markets in the UAE.

Mideast Stocks: Dubai gains on strong corporate earnings; oil drags Abu Dhabi
Dubai's main equities index closed higher on Friday, aided by robust corporate earnings and optimism around key talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russia's Vladimir Putin over Ukraine, while Abu Dhabi declined on falling oil prices. The White House has said the meeting in Alaska will take place at 11 a.m. local time (1900 GMT), with Trump hoping for a ceasefire agreement on Ukraine. Trump has said a second summit involving Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy could follow if the talks go well. Dubai's main index extended gains to second session with index climbing 0.5%, buoyed by the rise in the materials, financial, and industrial sectors stocks. Toll operator Salik Company jumped 3.1%, while Emirates Central Cooling Systems Corp. increased 1.2%. Salik reported nearly 50% increase in its Q2 profit and revenue on Wednesday, while also upgrading its FY25 revenue guidance to 34%-36%. Among the winners, maritime shipping firm Gulf Navigation Holding surged 3.4% following a fourth consecutive profitable quarter. Firm reported Q2 net profit of AED 7.4 Million ($2.01 million).

Brent crude slid 0.8% to $66.34 a barrel by 1134 GMT.

Kaspersky highlights biometric, signature risks with attempts up by 21.2% in UAE
Kaspersky has detected and blocked over 142 million phishing link clicks globally in Q2 2025, the UAE saw a 21.2% increase from Q1 in phishing attempts. Currently phishing is going through a shift driven by sophisticated AI-powered deception techniques and innovative evasion methods. Cybercriminals are exploiting deepfakes, voice cloning and trusted platforms like Telegram and Google Translate to steal sensitive data, including biometrics, electronic signatures and handwritten signatures, posing unprecedented risks to individuals and businesses. AI-powered tactics transforming phishing attacks AI has elevated phishing into a highly personalized threat. Large language models enable attackers to craft convincing emails, messages and websites that mimic legitimate sources, eliminating grammatical errors that once exposed scams. AI-driven bots on social media and messaging apps impersonate real users, engaging victims in prolonged conversations to build trust. These bots often fuel romantic or investment scams, luring victims into fake opportunities with AI-generated audio messages or deepfake videos. Attackers also create realistic audio and video deepfake impersonations of trusted figures — colleagues, celebrities or even bank officials — to promote fake giveaways or extract sensitive information. For instance, automated calls mimicking bank security teams use AI-generated voices to trick users into sharing two-factor authentication (2FA) codes, enabling account access or fraudulent transactions. Additionally, AI-powered tools analyze public data from social media or corporate websites to launch targeted attacks, such as HR-themed emails or fake calls referencing personal details. Employing new tactics to bypass detection Phishers are deploying sophisticated methods to gain trust, exploiting legitimate services to prolong their campaigns. For instance, Telegram's Telegraph platform, a tool to publish long texts, is used to host phishing content. Google Translate's page translation feature generates links that look like and are used by attackers to bypass security solutions' filters. Attackers now also integrate CAPTCHA, a common anti-bot mechanism, into phishing sites before directing users to the malicious page itself. By using CAPTCHA, these fraudulent pages deflect anti-phishing algorithms, as the presence of CAPTCHA is often associated with trusted platforms, lowering the likelihood of detection. A switch in hunting: from logins and passwords to biometrics and signatures The focus has shifted from passwords to immutable data. Attackers target biometric data through fraudulent sites that request smartphone camera access under pretexts like account verification, capturing facial or other biometric identifiers that cannot be changed. These are used for unauthorized access to sensitive accounts or sold on the dark web. Similarly, electronic and handwritten signatures, critical for legal and financial transactions, are stolen via phishing campaigns impersonating platforms like DocuSign or prompting users to upload signatures to fraudulent sites, posing significant reputational and financial risks to businesses. 'The convergence of AI and evasive tactics has turned phishing into a near-native mimic of legitimate communication, challenging even the most vigilant users. Attackers are no longer satisfied with stealing passwords — they're targeting biometric data, electronic and handwritten signatures, potentially creating devastating, long-term consequences. By exploiting trusted platforms like Telegram and Google Translate, and co-opting tools like CAPTCHA, attackers are outpacing traditional defenses. Users must stay increasingly skeptical and proactive to avoid falling victim,' said Olga Altukhova, security expert at Kaspersky. Earlier in 2025 Kaspersky detected a sophisticated targeted phishing campaign which was dubbed Operation ForumTroll, as attackers sent personalized phishing emails inviting recipients to the 'Primakov Readings' forum. These lures targeted media outlets, educational institutions and government organizations in Russia. After clicking on the link in the email, no additional action was needed to compromise their systems: the exploit leveraged a previously unknown vulnerability in the latest version of Google Chrome. The malicious links were extremely short-lived to evade detection and in most cases ultimately redirected to the legitimate website for 'Primakov Readings' once the exploit was taken down. To be protected from phishing, Kaspersky recommends: Verify unsolicited messages, calls, or links, even if they appear legitimate. Never share 2FA codes. Scrutinize videos for unnatural movements or overly generous offers, which may indicate deepfakes. Deny camera access requests from unverified sites and avoid uploading signatures to unknown platforms. Limit sharing sensitive details online, such as document photos or sensitive work information. Use Kaspersky Next (in corporate environments) or Kaspersky Premium (for individual use) to block phishing attempts.
