What the strike in Qatar could mean for the Middle East

 

Qatar has been seen as a neutral party in the Middle East for years, but Tuesday’s strike by Israel on Hamas’s headquarters could change that. CBC’s Evan Dyer breaks down Qatar’s history and world politics expert Janice Stein discusses the potential consequences of the strike.

Talabat Suspended in Qatar: Riders Struggle, Consumers Look for Options

 

وزارة التجارة والصناعة تُعلن عن إغلاق شركة، وذلك لعدم الالتزام بأحكام المادتين رقم (7) و (11) من القانون رقم (8) لسنة 2008 بشأن حماية المستهلك.#التجارة_والصناعة pic.twitter.com/xTLejTZ5ld

______________________ 

 The Ministry of Commerce and Industry announces the closure of a company called  Talabat due to non-compliance with the provisions of Articles (7) and () of Law No. (8) of 2008 regarding consumer protection.

Talabat, a big food delivery company in Qatar, was stopped for one week by the government. This happened because of problems with customers being misled.

Many delivery riders are now without work and cannot earn money. This is hard for them because they depend on daily wages. Some riders have faced problems like late payments before.

For customers, Talabat is not working now. Other delivery apps like Snoonu are still running, but some orders may be slow.

This shows how important it is to protect both workers and customers. People should know their rights and check other options when one service stops.

Watermelon & Halloumi cheese - summer recipes

As it’s watermelon season, I’d like to share two salad recipes I found online.
The first one involves frying some halloumi cheese and using basil leaves to sprinkle over the salad, with a drizzle of honey on top.
The second version grills the cheese and also adds chili oil, mixing watermelon and cucumber to create a more complex dressing with vinegar and sesame oil — perfect for those who dare to explore bolder flavors.

 ☀️ Summer rain in Qatar, while still quite rare, has been recorded occasionally in recent years, including just yesterday and in past summers. Typically, Qatar’s climate is extremely dry during summer, but brief, light rain showers can happen sporadically—usually just a few times every few years.

🌧️ In general, summer rain events in Qatar are very infrequent, happening maybe once or twice during the entire summer season, often linked to unusual weather patterns or regional climate variations. So although rare, summer rain is not impossible and can occur every few years.
