Rainy season in UAE: Police intensify emergency response plan, urge residents to prepare in advance

Ras Al Khaimah Police is all set to face the challenges the rainy season will bring this time of year through the intensified emergency programmes it has set in place to ensure the safety of the emirate's residents.

Police held a meeting, a top official said, chaired by Major General Ali Abdullah bin Alwan Al Nuaimi, Commander-in-Chief of Ras Al Khaimah Police and Head of the Local Emergency, Crisis and Disaster team, to ensure appropriate emergency procedures are in place during the season. During the meeting, a team was formed to conduct field visits and inspections of sites and areas that are likely to be most affected during the rain.

The meetings also reviewed the readiness of the emirate's infrastructure – in implementation of the strategy of the Ministry of Interior, which aims to preserve the safety and ensure the protection of lives and property, and to spread and enhance this security and safety.
