Good day, welcome to the Gulf News Update for Monday March 17th. Here are the top stories
00:09
at this hour.
00:10
Russia's lower house of parliament will pass legislation allowing Ukraine's southern
00:14
Crimea region to join Russia in the very near future, as deputy speaker said today. An overwhelming
00:20
95.5% of voters on the mostly Russian-speaking peninsula chose to succeed from Ukraine, according
00:25
to partial results from Sunday's referendum. There was sharp international condemnation
00:30
of the vote, with the European Union terming the referendum illegal and illegitimate.
00:35
The Abu Dhabi Department of Finance and the UAE Central Bank on Sunday signed separate
00:39
agreements with Dubai government to refinance a total of $20 billion in loans and bonds.
00:44
Dubai borrowed the money five years ago to help the government and its government-related
00:48
entities to meet some of the debt obligations in the face of the global financial crisis.
00:53
The refinancing comes ahead of its maturity this year.
00:56
Friday night wreaked havoc in Khor Fakhan, with floodwaters entering residents' homes,
01:01
reportedly killing livestock and inundating roads. Residents of Madafi locality said heavy
01:06
rain lashed their area for only 20 minutes, but they expected recovery will take weeks
01:10
in some cases. They reported property damage worth tens of thousands of dirhams.
01:15
Australia has accepted a request from Malaysia to take charge of the southern vector of the
01:19
search for the Flight 370. An investigation into the pilots of missing Malaysia Airlines'
01:24
Boeing 777 intensified today after officials confirmed that the last word spoken from a
01:28
cockpit came after a key signalling system was manually disabled.
01:32
US intelligence efforts were also focusing on Captain Zaheeri Ahmad Shah and his first
01:37
officer Farik Abdul Hamid, according to a senior US lawmaker.
01:42
In sport, world number two Novak Djokovic rallied to beat Roger Federer in a three-set
01:46
thriller for the Indian Wells ATP Masters title yesterday. Djokovic defeated Federer
01:51
3-6, 6-3, 7-6, 7-3 to capture his third title in the California desert.
01:57
Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger has insisted that their one-nil win over Tottenham proves that
02:02
they won't crack under the strain of the Premier League title race. Thomas Rizic's goal after
02:06
72 seconds set up the win for the Gunners.
02:09
And finally, the weather. Today's high across the UAE will be 24 degrees Celsius, dropping
02:13
to 18 degrees at night.
