AKHBAR.COM — أخبار دوت كوم — is a pan-Arab bilingual news publisher. We exist to make the Arab world’s news accessible, neutral, and free — in Arabic and in English, without a paywall, without an algorithm deciding what matters.
We run two products side by side:
Original, owned editorial content. Every day, our team reads across Arab media — Lebanese, Emirati, Saudi, Egyptian — and writes one clean, neutral brief per major story. Not a headline. Not a wire summary. A brief: the context, the players, the stakes, in plain language. One story. Two languages. Every day.
The full picture, aggregated. For readers who want to go deeper — the original articles, organised by country and category, drawn from trusted regional sources. CURATOR is the open archive that sits behind every brief.
AKHBAR.COM covers Lebanon, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt — the four capitals of Arab media. Each country has its own portal, in both Arabic and English. The Lebanese desk serves as our editorial home and credibility anchor. The Gulf desks are our commercial engine.
We believe access to neutral, quality news is not a premium feature. Every portal, every brief, every article on AKHBAR.COM is free — for everyone, forever. No subscription. No paywall. No sponsored content disguised as editorial. Our model is advertising-supported, Gulf-first, and built to last.
AKHBAR.COM is an independent pan-Arab digital publisher, founded by KARIM ZEIN. We are based in Lebanon, with coverage spanning the wider Arab world. The project is built on the belief that the Arab world deserves a news experience that is neutral, bilingual, and designed for the reader — not the algorithm.
