00:00Good day and welcome to the Gulf News Update for Sunday, November the 27th.

00:06Here are the top stories at this hour.

00:09Cuba mourned revolutionary leader Fidel Castro as the communist island prepared to say its

00:14last goodbyes to the towering giant of its modern history with mass memorials and a four-day

00:20funeral procession.

00:22After the stunned commotion surrounding Saturday's announcement that Castro had died at age 90,

00:28Sunday was said to be a day of calm preparations with no official activities planned.

00:33U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has termed the Green Party-initiated move to recount

00:38votes in the state of Wisconsin as a scam, asserting that the people have spoken and

00:43the election is over.

00:45The push to recount the votes was spearheaded by Green Party presidential nominee Jill Steyn,

00:50who is also seeking recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

00:55Nico Rosberg starts today's season-ending Formula One Abu Dhabi Grand Prix with the

01:01world title tantalizingly within his grasp.

01:04Having lost it to Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton in both 2014 and 2015, the German

01:10is best poised this time with a 12-point lead on his nearest rival and reigning champion

01:16Hamilton.

01:18Bollywood star Vidya Balan was in Dubai to promote her latest film, Kahani 2.

01:23The thriller, which releases in the UAE this weekend, will have several layers, she said,

01:28and make you question her character's motives.

01:31It's not a sequel to the hit 2012 film Kahani, though, despite her reuniting with director

01:38Sujoy Ghosh.

01:40And finally, the weather.

01:41Today's high across the UAE will be 30 degrees Celsius, dropping to 19 degrees at night.

01:47That's all for now.

01:48Thanks for watching.

01:49And as always, you can get the latest news at gulfnews.com
