Gold Shines Through Fog of War: Israeli Strike on Iran Pushes Prices to One-Month High
Waleed Farouk Just as markets were preparing for the typical summer calm, tensions reignited in the Middle East as Israel launched military strikes against Iranian targets — a move that sent gold prices surging. This was no fleeting jump; gold broke through the $3,425 per ounce mark, reaching its highest level since May. In the wake of this geopolitical escalation, investors wasted no time flocking to gold — the most time-tested safe haven in times of uncertainty. The rally in gold wasn't purely reactionary; it was also fueled by favorable economic conditions, including easing U.S. inflation and a weakening dollar, both of which further boosted the yellow metal's appeal. According to media reports, markets interpreted the Israeli strike as a serious indication that the conflict could escalate — particularly around the strategic Strait of Hormuz. These fears also drove oil prices higher, intensifying global market anxiety as Asian and European stock indices retreated. As markets digest the unfolding situation, one central question arises: how far can this gold rally go? Analysts suggest that surpassing the $3,400 threshold opens the door for a potential test of the $3,500 level if tensions persist. However, they caution that geopolitically driven price spikes are often short-lived, typically fading quickly if de-escalation or a sudden diplomatic breakthrough occurs. Still, what lends this particular surge additional weight is its alignment with supportive economic data — especially the slowdown in U.S. inflation. This could prompt the Federal Reserve to adopt a more dovish stance in the coming months, offering gold a rare double boost: political and economic. In the end, gold emerges as the clear winner in an atmosphere clouded with uncertainty, while global markets closely watch what comes next between Tel Aviv and Tehran. Every new missile may carry with it dozens of added dollars on the price of an ounce. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean News 3 Killed in Shooting Attack in Thailand

DGHR reinforces commitment to inclusive employment for people of determination across Dubai's government entities
DGHR LOGO JPEG As of 2024, 326 employees of determination have been integrated into Dubai Government entities. There are currently 237 employees of determination who are UAE nationals, working for Dubai's government entities. Dubai Municipality, Roads and Transport Authority, Dubai Police, Dubai Academic Health Corporation, and the General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs take the lead in employing people of determination. Dubai, June 2025 – The 'Inclusive Employment 2024' report, issued by the Dubai Government Human Resources Department (DGHR), reaffirms Dubai government entities' ongoing commitment to identifying, hiring, and integrating people of determination into the public workforce. In addition to unlocking their potential, building their capabilities, and ensuring their effective integration into government work, these efforts aspire to help them achieve their professional and personal goals, and contribute meaningfully to the nation's development, in line with Dubai's standing as an inclusive and empowering society for all. The steady increase in the number of employees of determination in government entities reflects the vision of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Defence, and Chairman of The Executive Council. His Highness has actively promoted the importance of integrating individuals of determination across all sectors, particularly the public sector, and enabling them to realise their potential and skills to shape Dubai's future and ensure its long-term prosperity. Integrated Ecosystem: His Excellency Abdullah Ali Bin Zayed Al-Falasi, Director General of DGHR's Department, emphasised the significance of this initiative, stating: 'The formation of the Higher Committee for the Protection of the Rights of People of Determination, chaired by His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is a significant step towards empowering people of determination—not only through employment opportunities but also through an integrated ecosystem that begins with assessment and training, followed by professional follow-up and development. Beyond simply providing jobs, we create career paths based on competence, fairness, and passion. This strategic direction reflects our commitment to shaping an inclusive work environment where every member of society, including people of determination, has the opportunity to define Dubai's future.' Insights and Initiatives: According to the report issued by DGHR, the number of people of determination employed across government entities has reached 326, including 237 UAE nationals. The report also includes an extensive breakdown by type of disability, educational qualifications, and gender distribution, making it a valuable resource for policymakers as they develop future strategies to support inclusive employment initiatives. Dubai Municipality, the Roads and Transport Authority, Dubai Police, Dubai Academic Health Corporation, and the General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs have topped the list of entities employing the highest number of people of determination. Through the implementation of broad strategic initiatives aimed at integrating people of determination into the public sector workforce, DGHR has remained committed to inclusive employment. These efforts have been carefully designed to provide advanced vocational training aligned with their aspirations and capabilities. In addition to statistical reporting, DGHR's responsibilities also include evaluating the professional competencies of job seekers from the people of determination community, designing tailored training programs, and hosting specialised workshops to enhance their readiness for the job market. In addition, DGHR follows up on their professional development within the respective government entities to ensure a sustainable and equitable work environment that fosters growth and excellence. In this regard, DGHR has launched a series of awareness and community-driven initiatives, including career guidance workshops, participation at job fairs, and collaborations with community organisations and the private sector to expand employment opportunities for people of determination. These strategic efforts reflect the Dubai Government's unwavering commitment to building an inclusive work environment that empowers people of determination as active partners in shaping a sustainable future for Dubai.
