Good day. Welcome to the Gulf News Update for Tuesday, June 9. Here are the top stories
00:09
at this hour.
00:11
More than 40,000 buildings in Dubai have been connected to a new life safety dashboard launched
00:16
by Dubai Civil Defence.
00:18
The agency aims to cover 70,000 buildings in the emirate within the next three years,
00:23
said Major General Rashid Thani Al Matrushi, Director of Dubai Civil Defence.
00:28
The buildings currently connected include high-rises, warehouses, hospitals, schools
00:32
and factories, he said.
00:33
Scandalhead bank HSBC said today it would cut its global headcount by up to 50,000 as
00:39
part of a restructuring that entails its withdrawal from Brazil and Turkey, while it also considers
00:44
abandoning London as its headquarters.
00:47
The bank also said in a statement to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that it intends to save
00:50
$5 billion in annual costs within two years.
00:54
The UN has presented a draft proposal for a Libyan unity government to warring factions
00:59
in an attempt to stabilise the conflict-torn country. The plan, unveiled at talks in Morocco,
01:04
addresses terms of a truce and disarmament of armed groups. UN Special Envoy Bernardino
01:09
León urged the Libyans to back the proposal.
01:13
The last of the Angola III inmates, whose decades in solitary confinement on a Louisiana
01:18
prison farm drew international condemnation and became the subject of two documentaries,
01:22
was ordered released Monday.
01:24
The ruling would free 68-year-old Albert Woodfox after more than 40 years in solitary.
01:30
Woodfox, who was serving an armed robbery sentence, had said he was singled out for
01:34
harsh treatment, including isolation, because of his political activism.
01:38
And finally, the weather. Today's high across the UAE will be 42 degrees Celsius, dropping
01:43
to 30 degrees at night.
01:45
That's all for now. Thanks for watching. And as always, you can get the latest news on
