Bahrain: Firm Fined BD37,000 For 2-Year Delay To Complete Air-Conditioning Work
A Bahraini holding company has been ordered to pay BD37,000 after failing to complete air-conditioning works across four villas for more than two years and seven months. The High Civil Court ruled that the company's prolonged delays left the plaintiff facing rising costs and unable to complete the project as planned. Lawyer Kaltham Al Koohaji, representing the plaintiff, argued that the company had signed a contract worth BD88,900 to supply and install air-conditioning systems, covering all materials, labour, and equipment. The plaintiff had already paid BD65,808, but the work delivered fell far short of expectations, with minimal progress made over nearly three years. Frustrated by the lack of completion, the plaintiff commissioned an engineering expert, whose report confirmed that the company had failed to fulfil its obligations. The lawyer also pointed out that the company's owners had managed the project so poorly that they should be held personally accountable. The court agreed, stating that the contract clearly outlined a phased work schedule, which had not been followed. The expert's findings, based on a site inspection and meetings with both parties, further supported the plaintiff 's claims. The court found the company solely responsible for the failure and ruled that it must pay BD36,504, plus BD1,000 in compensation, along with 2% annual interest. The company was also ordered to cover court costs, expert fees, and legal expenses.

Australia ready to consider requests for peacekeeping involvement in Ukraine
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has stated that his country is open to possible proposals to participate in peacekeeping operations in Ukraine. Source: Albanese at a meeting with journalists in Sydney Quote: "There's a discussion at the moment about potential peacekeeping. From my government's perspective, we're open to consideration of any proposals going forward, as Australia has historically played an important role, in areas including in Africa, in Cyprus, in a range of peacekeeping areas. We want to see peace in Ukraine, but we want to make sure that the illegal, immoral actions of Russia are not rewarded." Details: Albanese noted that Australia has so far provided AUD 1.5 billion (approximately US$933 million) in support to Ukraine, of which AUD 1.3 billion (approximately US$808 million) has been allocated for direct military assistance. His statement follows Donald Trump's decision to suspend all US military aid to Ukraine, aiming to pressure President Volodymyr Zelenskyy following a spat between the two leaders in the Oval Office. Previously: Zelenskyy left the White House ahead of schedule on Friday, 28 February, after a spat with Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance. In response, Trump claimed that Zelenskyy had disrespected the US and was not ready for peace. On Monday, Trump said that he had not yet discussed stopping military aid to Ukraine, saying "we'll see what happens". In recent weeks, the Trump administration has halted funding for the purchase of new weapons for Ukraine and is considering freezing another type of aid – the supply of weapons from US stockpiles. On 4 March, Bloomberg, citing a Pentagon official, and CNN, citing a White House official, reported that Trump had ordered the suspension of all military aid to Ukraine, increasing pressure on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after their row in the White House. Background: On 1 March, Albanese expressed his support for President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people. He noted that Zelenskyy had demonstrated courage and leadership, symbolic of his people, in the face of the brutal and illegal Russian invasion. In a demonstration of solidarity with Ukraine, Australia introduced its largest sanctions package since 2022 on 24 February, targeting 70 individuals and 79 organisations connected to Russia.
