✅ Despite scorching heat, solar power remains mirage in Iraq
🔸 MediaIraq has suffered from a lack of electricity generation capacity following the US-led invasion of 2003 as well as the rise and fall of the Islamic State group (IS) over 2014-17. Successive governments have thus far failed to rehabilitate Iraq’s electricity sector, despite spending some 50B USD on it in the first 16 years after the invasion. In the absence of robust regulatory frameworks and action plans, the country’s electricity sector is loaded with investment plans that can be described as ambitious at best and outlandish at worst. Among these plans is a previous renewable energy project that resurfaced last month...

✅ Are Saudi Arabia and the UAE on the same page?
🔸 MediaSaudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) seem to be on the same page on regional dialogue with Iran, for several reasons. Reports indicate that the Emiratis helped facilitate direct talks between Saudi and Iranian officials in Baghdad last month. Moreover, both Riyadh and Abu Dhabi are emphasizing the importance of dialogue with Tehran in what seems to be a well-coordinated campaign to cultivate better ties with Iran. The backdrop is a flurry of diplomatic tours in the Gulf separately pursued by the Saudi, Iranian and Turkish chief diplomats...

✅ Iraq's southern marshes challenged by storm of crises
🔸 MediaThe Mesopotamian Marshes, otherwise known as the Iraqi Marshes or Al-Ahwar, are of vital importance to Iraq. For the Marsh Arabs or Ma’dan, the marshes are particularly important for habitation as well as livelihood and income generated primarily through agriculture. The Marshes cover roughly 20,000 km2 (7,722 sq mi) of the lower part of the Mesopotamian basin. The UNESCO World Heritage Site’s natural beauty can best be seen via the lens of its rich biodiversity. Its variety of flora ranges from submerged to emerged plants, with a montage of birds, insects, amphibians, reptiles, fish, and mammals. More recently, hydro-engineering—dams for flood administration and hydroelectricity, reservoirs for agricultural irrigation, and canals—have contributed to a decline in the volume of the yearly marsh-renewing floods. In the 1990s, former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein drained the marshes in response to rebellious tribesmen partaking in anti-government uprisings...
