Dubai: Morning fog delayed flights at Dubai International Airport and contributed to 107 road accidents recorded by Dubai Police on Thursday.
Police said they recorded 1,164 calls in the morning until fog lifted, an official said.
An Emirates spokesperson, meanwhile, said fog resulted “in the cancellation of seven flights and the diversion of nine flights at Dubai International. Dubai Airports is working with airlines, control authorities and all other stakeholders to minimise inconvenience to our customers and restore normal operations.”
Morning fog is forecast for three more days in the UAE.
