UAE and Jordan begin construction of railway to transport phosphate to Red Sea port
Jordan and the UAE have begun constructing the Aqaba–Shidiya–Maan railway, a major transport project overseen by King Abdullah and Abu Dhabi crown prince Sheikh Khaled. The railway, managed by the UAE–Jordan Railway Company, will transport approximately 13 million tonnes of phosphate annually from Shidiya mines to the Red Sea port of Aqaba. This initiative aims to enhance phosphate transport, reduce shipping costs, and connect Jordan's resources to international markets.

FLIC Trust Score70 / 100
How FLIC Trust Scores workFLIC Trust Scores turn community ratings into a 0–100 signal about how readers assess a story. Fake News votes lower the score, while Liberal, Conservative, and Independent classifications support it. The formula also rewards a balanced split between Liberal and Conservative ratings instead of treating one political viewpoint as automatically more trustworthy. Scores can change as more people vote and represent community judgment, not a factual verdict or substitute for reading the original reporting. Learn more about how FLIC works.
