Dubai's marine transport network is set for a data-driven upgrade as the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) rolls out an enhanced Seasonal Network initiative powered by artificial intelligence and predictive analytics. The move is designed to improve service flexibility and respond more efficiently to fluctuating passenger demand during peak seasons, public holidays and major events across the emirate.The summer operating plan, effective in July, is built on an integrated big-data repository tracking passenger numbers, revenue, and occupancy rates. Officials say the system sharpens forecasting accuracy and supports more responsive operational decisions as usage patterns shift throughout the year.

Emirati patients may soon be able to access hospitals and specialised treatment across the UAE more easily under the country’s newly approved national healthcare and health insurance system, experts told Khaleej Times.

The henna design on a seven-year-old should have faded in days. Instead, it left a second-degree burn on her skin, and a white scar her dark skin will carry for the rest of her life. The case is one of many seen by Dr Salem Antabi, a specialist dermatologist with over 30 years of clinical experience, who has been treating UAE children for henna-related skin injuries throughout his career. As families across the country prepare for Eid Al Adha, he is urging parents to think carefully before painting any henna on a child's skin."I am completely against henna for children from one to three years old," he says.
