[00:07:26] the Omani memory appeared in

[00:07:53] of Oman. The Emirate of Sharjah

[00:08:01] of the Sultanate of Oman. This choice crowns
[00:08:04] the deep bonds of history and thought that

[00:08:11] Muhammad Al Qasimi, Member of the Supreme Council and Ruler
[00:08:15] of Sharjah, affirmed during the exhibition's activities.
[00:08:20] the great historical and cultural value
[00:08:23] that the presence of the Sultanate
[00:08:26] of Oman as a guest of honor represents,
[00:08:29] with its intellectual and cultural heritage that enriches
[00:08:33] the creative Arab and human
[00:08:35] scene. We particularly welcome
[00:08:39] our brothers from the Sultanate of Oman who
[00:08:42] are participating with us in this occasion.
[00:08:46] We welcome them as guests of honor for this
[00:08:49] edition of the exhibition,
[00:08:52] and we are pleased that this
[00:08:55] participation will be an opportunity for the public
[00:08:58] to learn about the rich heritage
[00:09:01] of knowledge and literature
[00:09:03] in Oman, and what its writers
[00:09:06] contribute, and what Oman is rich in
[00:09:10] of knowledge and literary heritage. And
[00:09:13] what its writers and creators
[00:09:16] offer of renewed
[00:09:20] giving. For his part, His Excellency Sayyid Saud bin Hilal Al Busaidi,
[00:09:23] Minister of Culture, Sports, and Youth,

[00:09:55] horizons to introduce the Omani cultural
[00:09:58] achievement in its diversity and richness,

[00:10:06] peoples and civilizations, and to develop
[00:10:09] cultural and creative industries.
[00:10:13] In the belief that culture is not
[00:10:16] a sector concerned with producing knowledge
[00:10:19] and preserving heritage only,
[00:10:22] but rather a fundamental pillar for building
[00:10:26] people and consolidating values and the advancement of nations.
[00:10:30] And I look forward through
[00:10:33] this participation to strengthening
[00:10:36] United Arab
[00:10:40] Emirates and sisterly and friendly countries
[00:10:43] to serve the cultural movement in the fields
[00:10:47] of publishing, translation, scientific
[00:10:50] research, and arts, and other
[00:10:53] initiatives for writers and intellectuals.
[00:10:57] From Sharjah, the Sultanate
[00:11:01] of Oman continues to present its extended
[00:11:04] civilized story throughout history, leaving
[00:11:08] a cultural impact where
[00:11:11] the authenticity of the past meets the horizons
[00:11:14] of renewal
[00:11:15] and knowledge.
[00:11:20] To learn about the most prominent events at the Sharjah International
[00:11:23] Exhibition in its current session, our correspondent
[00:11:27] Fatima bint Juma Al Hedabi joins us from there.
[00:11:31] The floor is yours,
[00:11:32] Fatima.
[00:11:40] Good morning, culture and knowledge, colleague Khalfan and dear viewers,
[00:11:44] on the second day of the Sharjah International Book Fair in its
[00:11:47] 45th edition, in which the Sultanate of Oman is the guest of honor
[00:11:53] the Omani pavilion, history
[00:11:56] and manuscripts are intertwined, evoking the memory of knowledge, documentation, and modern
[00:11:59] literature, perhaps revealing the diversity of scientific
[00:12:03] and literary experiences in the Sultanate of Oman. And this
[00:12:07] scene takes us on a cultural narrative that highlights the impact
[00:12:10] of Omanis and also monitors their intellectual
[00:12:13] contributions. To get closer to these details, let me welcome my guest, Ms.
[00:12:17] Nawal Al Busaidi, Head of the Registration and Cataloging Department
[00:12:21] at the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Youth. Ms. Nawal, welcome.
[00:12:30] to the Sharjah Exhibition and the historical value
[00:12:33] they carry. We chose the most prominent
[00:12:37] Omani manuscripts
[00:12:39] in the science of navigation, and the oldest manuscript we have
[00:12:42] is also in medicine, and also travel
[00:12:45] literature, also the Holy Quran and other manuscripts that
[00:12:55] Omani pavilion? The oldest manuscript we have even in the manuscripts
[00:12:58] department is almost 889
[00:13:01] years old, which is in biographies
[00:13:03] and responses, manuscripts in biographies and responses, which are responses between
[00:13:07] scholars and jurists and questions between scholars and jurists.
[00:13:11] And the period to which it dates back, it was copied in
[00:13:14] 531 AH, meaning it is almost
[00:13:17] 889
[00:13:25] many of these manuscripts, but among them is the manuscript of "Tanzih Al-Absar".
[00:13:29] Let's talk and clarify the picture for the viewer about what this
[00:13:32] manuscript contains. "Tanzih Al-Absar" is the journey of Sultan Barghash to
[00:13:35] Zanzibar in 1875, and it is one of
[00:13:39] the first journeys to Europe. A royal
[00:13:42] journey to Europe was in response to an invitation
[00:13:44] from Queen Victoria. Of course, during
[00:13:48] his journey, he passed through
[00:13:51] a sea voyage, which was through the Red Sea. He landed in Aden.
[00:13:55] After that, he headed to Port Said, and during
[00:13:58] his return, Sultan Barghash also landed
[00:14:02] as a guest in Egypt. He stayed there for almost
[00:14:06] 20 days. He also visited the mother of Sultan Khedive
[00:14:09] Ismail. He visited many areas in
[00:14:12] Egypt. Also, when he went to Europe, it was
[00:14:16] a visit to bring everything new to
[00:14:20] Zanzibar and
[00:14:23] to Oman. Very good. So,
[00:14:27] in the Omani pavilion, and why were these specific manuscripts chosen?
[00:14:30] There are approximately six manuscripts that we chose
[00:14:34] based on the difference in topics
[00:14:37] and the difference in sciences in them. Also,
[00:14:40] the manuscripts that were also included in UNESCO, among them is the manuscript of "Ma'dan
[00:14:44] Al-Asrar" and also the manuscripts of the physician Rashid bin
[00:14:47] Amira as a personality included in UNESCO in
[00:14:50] 2013, in addition to the oldest manuscript, and also
[00:14:54] the manuscript. The manuscript of Muharib, which was copied for the Sheikhah
[00:14:57] and jurist Aisha
[00:15:07] the Omani pavilion. This pavilion
[00:15:10] highlights the history of the Sultanate of Oman and its
[00:15:13] cultural heritage. This history whose pages share the memory
[00:15:17] of the place and this culture that also takes us from
[00:15:21] the bank of history to the space of creativity. Now,
[00:15:25] I return to you, Khalfan. So, Fatima bint Juma
[00:15:29] Sharjah, thank you very
[00:15:32] much.
[00:15:39] His Excellency Sayyid Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi, Minister of Foreign Affairs, received
[00:15:43] a phone call from His Excellency Dr. Constantinos Kombos,
[00:15:46] Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Cyprus. The call
[00:15:49] discussed cooperation relations between the two friendly countries,
[00:15:53] in addition to the accelerating developments in the region
[00:15:56] and the ongoing diplomatic contacts and efforts to contain
[00:15:59] tensions and prevent the renewal of military confrontations,
[00:16:03] and to enhance regional and international coordination to support peaceful
[00:16:06] solutions and spare the region and the world
[00:16:09] more crises
[00:16:11] and repercussions.
[00:16:20] The Democratic Party seized control of both the Senate
[00:16:24] and the House of Representatives in the US Congress
[00:16:26] after achieving widespread gains in the midterm
[00:16:30] elections. The Democrats achieved a majority
[00:16:33] in the Senate by winning 54
[00:16:37] seats out of 100, compared to 44
[00:16:40] seats for the Republicans, with counting
[00:16:43] operations still ongoing. The Democrats also won
[00:16:46] 228 seats in the House of Representatives,
[00:16:49] compared to 139
[00:16:51] seats for the Republican Party. As for the gubernatorial
[00:16:55] elections, the Democrats led with 28
[00:16:59] seats, while the Republicans won 20
[00:17:02] seats. These results came amid a decline in approval
[00:17:05] ratings for US President Trump,
[00:17:08] against the backdrop of the ongoing war on Iran and the resulting
[00:17:11] increase in fuel prices, in addition to higher customs
[00:17:14] duties.
[00:17:20] Iran's Supreme Leader
[00:17:23] the Middle East would become wider in scope if it resumed,
[00:17:27] in light of the US and Israel hinting
[00:17:30] at a new round of strikes on
[00:17:33] Iran. The Supreme Leader said that the results
[00:17:37] of the American election do not mean
[00:17:40] a change in Washington's policy against his country, but he
[00:17:44] indicated at the same time that Iran does not seek
[00:17:47] to wage any war, but it is ready to defend itself in
[00:17:51] case of new attacks against it. The US President
[00:17:55] had recently threatened to launch new attacks on
[00:17:58] Iran, and this was accompanied by similar statements
[00:18:01] from Israeli Prime Minister
[00:18:02] Benjamin Netanyahu.
[00:18:06] Israeli forces demolished and burned
[00:18:10] a number of houses in the town of Hadatha in southern
[00:18:13] Lebanon. Lebanese media reported that Israeli
[00:18:17] army forces threw sound grenades over a group of
[00:18:20] farmers at the outskirts of the town of Kafr Shuba in southern
[00:18:24] Lebanon, without any casualties, while Israeli
[00:18:27] artillery shelled the southern town of Baraashit
[00:18:31] with a number of shells, and Israeli aircraft flew at
[00:18:36] villages in southern Lebanon and the capital Beirut, reaching
[00:18:40] its southern
[00:18:41] suburb.
[00:18:46] Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced that he had
[00:18:49] held a detailed conversation with US envoys
[00:18:53] Steve Whitkoff and Jared Kushner ahead
[00:18:57] of scheduled meetings between representatives of Kyiv
[00:19:00] and Moscow starting today, Thursday, with a meeting at the White
[00:19:03] House hosted by US First Lady Melania
[00:19:06] Trump. President Zelensky reaffirmed his country's
[00:19:10] position on ending the war, stressing his readiness to take
[00:19:14] the necessary steps. Meetings are scheduled to be held
[00:19:17] today in Brussels between representatives of the European
[00:19:20] Union, the United Kingdom, NATO,
[00:19:23] and the United States to discuss security guarantees
[00:19:27] for Ukraine.
[00:19:31] Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov affirmed that Moscow hopes
[00:19:34] that President Donald Trump will continue his efforts
[00:19:38] aimed at establishing peace even after
[00:19:41] the US Congress
[00:19:44] a time when Ukrainian authorities announced an increase in the number of deaths from the Russian
[00:19:48] strike in Zaporizhzhia to more than 37
[00:19:51] dead, while dozens are still
[00:19:55] missing. Ukrainian President Volodymyr
[00:19:58] Zelensky said that Russian forces dropped aerial bombs on
[00:20:02] a school building that was used to distribute humanitarian
[00:20:05] aid, which led to the killing and disappearance of dozens,
[00:20:08] but Russia denied this, saying that the attack
[00:20:12] targeted Ukrainian military units and did not
[00:20:16] target civilians.
[00:20:22] Pyongyang conducted a test launch of a new advanced
[00:20:25] missile system for air defense, and also carried out
[00:20:29] training on directing strikes with cruise
[00:20:32] missiles. The Korean Central News Agency stated that the air
[00:20:36] defense test confirmed the technical
[00:20:39] specifications and reliability of the new equipment and the multiple
[00:20:42] guidance patterns used in the missiles,
[00:20:45] in addition to the system's ability to identify and track
[00:20:48] targets. The agency added that a sub-unit
[00:20:52] of the long-range strategic cruise missile unit
[00:20:55] in the eastern region also carried out on
[00:20:58] Wednesday a training that targeted a hypothetical airport site.
[00:21:12] Every news story begins with a moment
[00:21:15] of information received
[00:21:18] and a team begins to work.
[00:21:25] Retreat, envision, move, prepare
[00:21:28] for broadcast.
[00:21:30] Behind every news story, a team works with precision, speed,
[00:21:33] and honor.
[00:21:44] we make the

[00:21:57] The Sultanate of Oman participated in the 56th session of the Council of Arab
[00:22:00] Information Ministers at the League of Arab States headquarters
[00:22:04] in Cairo. The meeting emphasized the necessity of intensifying
[00:22:07] Arab media work and developing it to confront challenges in
[00:22:11] light of the media's influential role in shaping awareness, identity,
[00:22:14] and influencing the public and decision-makers on
[00:22:17] issues of our nation and its supreme interests. With Omani
[00:22:20] presence, the meetings of Arab Information
[00:22:25] Secretariat of the League of Arab States in Cairo. The agenda
[00:22:29] of the meetings included
[00:22:32] a package of strategic issues and vital
[00:22:35] files, with the discussion of the Arab media
[00:22:38] roadmap for sustainable development
[00:22:41] (2030) being at the forefront of the discussions,
[00:22:44] in addition to formulating a unified Arab strategy
[00:22:48] for dealing with major media companies and international
[00:22:51] digital platforms. The most important issue raised at today's meeting of Arab
[00:22:55] Information Ministers was the Palestinian issue, considering it a pivotal and important
[00:22:59] issue.
[00:23:03] Everything that is done through our Arab media
[00:23:07] related to the Palestinian issue was discussed, exposing
[00:23:10] what is happening in the Palestinian territories of practices
[00:23:14] through the presence of correspondents
[00:23:16] in both the West Bank and Gaza,
[00:23:20] and presenting it with an Arab
[00:23:23] considers the Palestinian issue.
[00:23:26] meeting, the role and presentation of what
[00:23:30] member states are doing to support the Palestinian cause, the State of Palestine, and Palestine
[00:23:33] Television, were discussed. The League of Arab States received more than
[00:23:37] 190 media works, hundreds of hours,
[00:23:40] thousands of hours about the Palestinian issue and what it faces.
[00:23:43] And keeping pace with accelerating technical
[00:23:46] developments, the file of employing artificial
[00:23:50] intelligence in Arab media topped the deliberations
[00:23:54] with a focus on its positive investment and discussing
[00:23:57] its repercussions on human resources and content
[00:24:00] creation, as well as following up on the executive
[00:24:04] plan for the Arab strategy for media
[00:24:07] and information education for artificial
[00:24:11] intelligence. There are two aspects: a positive aspect, which is benefiting
[00:24:15] from this aspect in our Arab media and developing it,
[00:24:18] and the other aspect related to misleading information and rumors
[00:24:22] that come through misleading images and videos,
[00:24:26] and therefore emphasizing the importance of paying attention to
[00:24:29] such clips and images, whether for media workers

[00:24:52] I emphasize the special importance of the Arab media roadmap for sustainable

[00:25:31] issues and enhances the cultural and civilized
[00:25:34] Arab presence on the international scene. From the League of Arab

[00:25:41] TV. The Omani-British Association
[00:25:45] celebrated its 50th anniversary in an event
[00:25:48] that carries diplomatic, cultural, and economic dimensions.
[00:25:52] The ceremony, held in the British capital,
[00:25:55] London, reflects the depth of historical relations
[00:25:59] between the Sultanate of Oman and the United Kingdom.
[00:26:03] From a diplomatic legacy extending for half a century to
[00:26:06] new horizons of cooperation and partnership,
[00:26:09] the Omani-British Association opens a new window
[00:26:11] to strengthen relations between the two countries through
[00:26:15] the New Generation Group for 2026,
[00:26:19] which brings together
[00:26:23] of young British and Omani competencies
[00:26:27] and leaders.
[00:26:36] In an exceptional occasion that reflects the depth of relations between the two countries,
[00:26:40] and this is the thirteenth time we host
[00:26:43] a delegation of young Omani and British leaders
[00:26:47] as part of an initiative aimed at preparing a new generation to lead the future
[00:26:50] of this relationship. The recent official visit embodied the depth
[00:26:54] of friendship built between the two countries over decades, and what
[00:26:57] we seek today is to pass this friendship on to future generations.
[00:27:01] The event this year coincides with the association's
[00:27:05] celebration of its 50th anniversary,
[00:27:07] at a stage that goes beyond recounting
[00:27:11] the history of friendship between the two countries to
[00:27:14] building bridges of communication
[00:27:17] leaders and decision-makers in the public
[00:27:21] and private sectors. The British Omani Society works on several
[00:27:25] programs to strengthen the exceptional relations between
[00:27:30] Recently, our focus has been on youth programs.
[00:27:37] We work to build bridges of cooperation between Omani and British investors to create
[00:27:40] investment differences between the two countries. From November 4th to 6th,
[00:27:44] the activities include meetings,
[00:27:47] discussions, field visits,
[00:27:50] and cultural exchange, allowing
[00:27:53] participants to explore issues that
[00:27:56] shape the future of the bilateral trade
[00:28:00] and diplomacy to innovation,
[00:28:04] and technology. Today, we inaugurate a workshop
[00:28:07] with the participation of 30
[00:28:10] both countries. We focus on several different topics,
[00:28:13] most importantly artificial intelligence, renewable
[00:28:16] energy, and economic topics.
[00:28:19] One of the most important goals that
[00:28:22] forum is the exchange of experiences between
[00:28:26] the two countries and practical experiences between them.
[00:28:30] The New Generation Group receives support from BP
[00:28:34] Oman, in addition to sponsorship from OmniInvest
[00:28:37] and Vodafone, which reflects the role of the private
[00:28:41] sector in supporting communication and investing in the energies
[00:28:45] of youth. In relations between nations, the strength
[00:28:48] of partnerships is not measured by their accumulated history alone, but by
[00:28:52] what they can create for the future. And here,
[00:28:55] specifically, lies the importance of this initiative. It does not only bring together young people
[00:28:58] from two friendly countries for the sake of exchanging experiences.
[00:29:02] Rather, it provides a new generation with the opportunity to
[00:29:06] be a partner in shaping the priorities of the Omani-British
[00:29:09] relationship for the next fifty
[00:29:12] years. For Oman TV, Reem Al-Naimi,
