Dubai Floods: Air India, IndiGo Dubai flights face cancellation amid adverse weather | Oneindia
The United Arab Emirates witnessed an unprecedented deluge, marking its most substantial rainfall on record since 1949.
Described as a "historic weather event" by the state-run WAM news agency, the widespread downpour across the UAE is attributed to a combination of factors, including cloud seeding initiatives.
Significant disruptions have been reported in flights from India to Dubai due to heavy rains causing flooding at the emirate's airport, one of the world's busiest.
Air India, operating 72 weekly flights from multiple Indian cities to Dubai, alongside IndiGo, have cancelled their services on Wednesday.
Other carriers, including Air India Express, Vistara, and SpiceJet, which also serve various Indian cities to Dubai routes, have been affected as well.
Dubai, hosting a substantial Indian diaspora, sees these flight cancellations impacting travel plans and connections for many.
In a shocking incident over the Red Sea, the US Navy mistakenly shot down one of its own F/A-18 fighter jets in a friendly fire mishap. The jet, which had taken off from the USS Harry S. Truman, was downed by the USS Gettysburg during an operation to disrupt Houthi forces in Yemen. While the pilots ejected safely, the incident raises serious questions about military coordination. Watch the aftermath and the investigation into this unprecedented mistake.

Israeli warplanes launched a massive assault on Syria, conducting over 100 airstrikes in a single day, targeting key military and intelligence sites in Damascus, Homs, and Daraa. This aerial offensive follows the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime and comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the 1974 Disengagement Agreement with Syria null and void, signaling Israel’s intent to occupy the strategic buffer zone near the Golan Heights.
Israeli forces took control of the Mazzeh base on Mount Hermon, while advancing into several towns, including Quneitra and Khan Arnabeh. Israeli military officials issued warnings for residents in areas near the Golan to stay indoors as operations continued.
