Featuring a fresh format, the two-hour show will closely examine current issues and events from the Arab region and beyond through an innovative approach featuring News bulletins, expert analysis and discussions. ‘Newsroom’ will also put a social and human touch on current events with complete objectivity and professionalism to reflect Sky News Arabia’s commitment to accurate and ethical reporting. 

Speaking ahead of the launch, Muhannad Al Khatib, Anchor at Sky News Arabia, said: “We are very excited to introduce the ‘Newsroom’ concept that will definitely prove a regional turning-point in the world of broadcast news. Our team brings to the table rich insights and expertise in the field and will offer viewers a completely different perspective on breaking news, as well as detailed analyses.
