Dubai Police has urged owners of the vehicles stalled on Dubai roads during the heavy rainfall and waterlogging last week to quickly remove them from the roads.

"Dubai Police urges vehicle owners to promptly relocate their parked vehicles from the streets and roads, so that they can restore the smooth flow of traffic," the social media post on X said.
