Ras al-Khaimah, one of the seven sheikhdoms in the United Arab Emirates, has said it will allow 'gaming' while announcing a deal with Las Vegas-based casino giant Wynn Resorts. 

Wynn Resorts plans to build a multibillion-dollar development on Ras al-Khaimah's artificial Al-Marjan Island.

The resort, set to open in 2026, will include a 'luxury' 1,000-room hotel, a mall, a convention centre and a 'gaming area'.
