cbc-apitool has a --payload-data-utf8 option for an UTF-8 encoded message. This is normally transcoded to classic GSM 7 bit alphabet. However, if the REST request also contains a "character_set": "ucs2" attribute, the src/rest_api.c code should transcode it to UCS-2 and hence support arabic or any other non-latin characters that can be expressed in UCS2.

Sorry for the late response. Please consider contacting sysmocom for a commercial support contract if you want paid, higher-priority support for your questions.

cbc_apitool (which is really just an example script emulating what your backend should be doing) has now been extended with configurable character set in this patch: https://gerrit.osmocom.org/c/osmo-cbc/+/34812
