Last update: 8 hours ago

Digital Government: Saudi Arabia’s Digital Government Authority says its Digital Experience Maturity Index hit 87.06% in 2026, with 59 platforms assessed to improve user satisfaction and service reliability. Hajj Governance: Pakistan’s National Assembly Standing Committee on Religious Affairs objects to a four-year Hajj policy for 2027–30, questioning why it was approved by the federal cabinet before committee review. Regional Security & Travel Context: Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan signed the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement, with Erdogan urging wider participation; Egypt is reported to be holding back on joining. Red Sea Shipping Risk: Iran-backed Houthi attacks continue to disrupt maritime routes near Bab el-Mandeb, including a strike that killed six and a separate U.S.-linked incident in the Gulf of Oman—bad news for regional logistics and tourism planning.
