TRUMP FACES NEW CHARGES: Donald Trump is facing fresh criminal charges for allegedly pressuring an employee to delete security footage at his Florida residence, which is linked to his mishandling of classified files. Prosecutors claim the footage at his Mar-a-Lago estate shows the improper handling of classified information. The new indictment includes charges of willful retention of defense information and obstruction, bringing the total charges to 40 in this case. Despite his denial of any wrongdoing and labeling the prosecutor as "deranged," these legal challenges could affect his potential presidential run, raising concerns about his ability to lead effectively. Trump's political future remains uncertain as he grapples with the legal ramifications of these allegations. (By Sadiq Shaban, Opinion Editor)

GET YOUR HEPATITIS B SHOT: The UAE's Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) recently announced that the country wants to eradicate hepatitis by 2030 — through vaccinations, screenings, and awareness campaigns. World Hepatitis Day is commemorated annually on July 28. The Ministry noted that this day presents a significant opportunity to raise public awareness and educate people about the preventive, diagnosis, and treatment options available to combat the disease, lower the risk of infection, and stop transmission. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advises everyone from birth up to age 49 to get hepatitis B shot. MoHAP said it had elevated the eradication of hepatitis to a top priority. Adopting a comprehensive programme that unites the public and private healthcare sectors will help boost the nation's healthcare system, strengthen control measures and sustain beneficial actions.
