Pakistan Embassy In UAE Sets Up Flood Helpline

Pakistan Embassy In UAE Sets Up Flood Helpline

The Pakistan embassy in the United Arab Emirates has set up a helpline to assist Pakistani expatriates amidst severe flooding caused by unprecedented rainfall in the region. The UAE has been grappling with the aftermath of these record-breaking rains, which have transformed the typically arid desert state into flooded chaos, disrupting daily life significantly.

As emergency situations unfolded, many residents found themselves stranded, spending nights in their vehicles, and significant disturbances occurred at Dubai’s international airport (DXB), leading to widespread disruption. The intense weather conditions have led to the closure of schools, parks, and markets, with a tentative reopening scheduled for the following week. This natural disaster has not only impacted local citizens but also residents from various nations living in the UAE.
