LONDON: In a move to bolster its regional presence, Al Hadath news channel has opened a new Riyadh newsroom.
The expansion is in line with the channel’s ongoing efforts to broaden its operations in the region.
In a statement, the network said: “This strategic expansion aligns with a period of intensifying regional events and their profound implications on the global stage.”
According to the channel, the new service would be geared toward improving the efficiency and immediacy of live coverage, facilitating a more thorough analysis of events in the region.
As part of the expansion, the new Riyadh newsroom features live broadcast studios equipped with the latest media technology, including ultra-high-definition imagery, illustrative screens, and analysis tools powered by artificial intelligence.
Launched in 2011, the free-to-air news and current affairs satellite channel has operated as an extension of the long-standing Al Arabiya news channel, bringing viewers extensive live coverage of events as they happen from throughout the Arab world and beyond.
