from Trending Middle East · host The National
Trending Middle East brings you the latest social media and search trends from the region and around the world. On today's episode, White House National Security spokesman John Kirby confirms that Iranian troops have been training Russian forces in Crimea to use Tehran-made drones to strike Ukrainian cities. Etihad Airways is set to operate a net-zero emissions flight from Washington's Dulles Airport to Abu Dhabi via Sharm El Sheikh. The flight will carry delegates to Egypt's Cop27 climate change conference as part of the airline's push for sustainable travel. Britain's King Charles III is set to welcome the second prime minister in his six-week reign after Liz Truss resigned following days of turmoil triggered by her mini-budget, which opened a £70 billion ($78.6bn) black hole in public finances. She is the shortest-serving prime minister in British history. Iranian climber Elnaz Rekabi will not be punished or suspended after competing without a headscarf in South Korea, the country's Olympic committee president Mahmoud Khosravi Vafa said. Supporters of Rekabi remain worried for her as other athletes have been harassed by the government for supporting the weeks-long protests in Iran.
