Meanwhile, the desert city of Dubai was battered by a record-breaking rainstorm on April 15, April 16, and April 17. Heavy rain lashed the United Arab Emirates, surpassing the UAE’s annual rainfall average in the past 75 years. The rainstorm paralysed much of the city for the last two days, halted operations at Dubai Airport, flooded the highly advanced infrastructure malls of Dubai, and swept away cars across the roads. This was the heaviest rainfall that caused chaos in the city and ignited worry about climate change around the world.
As per the country’s National Committee for Emergency Management, heavy rain also lashed neighbouring Arab nations, including Qatar, Bahrain, and Saudi Arabia. In addition to that, at least 18 people were killed by the heavy rain in nearby Oman.
