Dubai: His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has ordered the construction of five mosques in Hatta.

According to Shaikh Mohammad's directives, a series of infrastructure and development projects will also be implemented in Hatta. Once completed, these projects will provide the most advanced amenities.

Shaikh Mohammad has instructed Lieutenant General Musbah Rashid Al Fatan, director of his office, to supervise the implementation of these new projects.

Al Fatan said Shaikh Mohammad's instructions followed the tour he made on Wednesday to Hatta.

"Work to achieve these projects will commence immediately. The projects will be designed and built in line with state-of-the-art construction concepts, while designs of mosques will carry the features of the Islamic architecture," he said.
