Fourteen sailors were rescued from a burning boat at Dubai Creek this morning.
Dubai Civil Defence used their recently-launched ‘Dolphin jetski and Floating Firefighting Station’ to help extinguish the blaze that caused traffic issues in the area.
The incident occurred near the Floating Bridge in Dubai, which resulted in the popular route being closed off for time while authorities tackled the fire.
