Dubai Airport left UNDERWATER as storm rains & flash floods turn runway into lake leaving flight …

A MAJOR storm in Dubai has led to major disruption, with a number of planes flooded at the world’s busiest airport. Operations at Dubai International Airport (DXB) were suspended for 25 minutes and 21 outbound and 24 inbound flights were cancelled. Planes are seen splashing through water at Dubai’s main airportX Another three flights were diverted to other neighbouring airports, a spokesperson told Gulf News. It comes after Dubai Police yesterday warned of an impending storm and advised that people steer clear of beaches and valleys as they could flood. They said flooding may occur due to “rains, strong winds, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail, reducing visibility”. Dramatic video shared to social media on Tuesday showed flooded roads as many cars were left stranded in deep water. One clip showed a stationary Rolls Royce, sitting still amid a rushing river of water. The man who posted the video wrote on X: “This is not what I expected in Dubai! “My condolences to the Rolls Royce owner!” THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY… The Sun is your go to destination for the best celebrity news, football news, real-life stories, jaw-dropping pictures and must-see video.
