Good day. Welcome to the Gulf News update for Tuesday, September 24. Here are the top

Dubai police has helped foil a drug smuggling operation worth more than 500 million dirhams.

Ten suspects were arrested in the middle of the Indian Ocean in the first of its kind

operation. An international task force seized 350 kilograms of hashish and 500 kilograms
00:28
of crystal meth.
00:30
Kenyan security forces battled Al-Qaeda-linked terrorists in a Nairobi mall for a fourth
00:35

00:40
in a siege that has left at least 62 people dead. Despite Kenya's assurances of success

on Twitter, explosions and more gunfire could be heard from the mall early today.
00:50
BlackBerry has agreed to a possible $4.7 billion buyout to a group led by its biggest shareholder,

A court in Egypt has banned all activities by the Muslim Brotherhood. The Cairo court
01:09
said the ruling applied to the Islamist movement, its non-governmental organization and any
01:14
affiliated groups. It also ordered the interim government to seize the Brotherhood's funds
01:18
and form a panel to administer its frozen assets until any appeal had been heard.
01:24
Both US President Barack Obama and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani are set to deliver
01:28
