The once very rich and luxurious emirate collapses in the horrors of war
Dubai is in an unprecedented state of emergency, as recent Iranian attacks on energy infrastructure seriously threaten the desalination plant's water supply.
Experts warn that drinking water supplies are only enough for 48 hours, creating deep concern in a region that relies heavily on technology for its daily survival.
According to the Daily Mail, the Khabsan power complex, which supplies power to desalination plants, suffered extensive damage from the recent attacks.
The closure of these units puts the water supply of millions of residents at immediate risk, with authorities warning that the crisis could leave the region without sufficient drinking water within two days.
At the same time, the UAE Ministry of Economy has categorically denied rumors about imposing restrictions on capital movements or hindering foreign investors, stressing that relevant posts on social media are incorrect.
The energy infrastructure crisis raises concerns about the region's economic stability, given its dependence on technological infrastructure.
The situation is particularly critical, as the closure of desalination plants puts the water supply of urban centers at immediate risk within the next 48 hours.
In addition, Cathay Pacific announced the suspension of its flights to Dubai until April 30, citing safety reasons, which highlights the international impact of the crisis.
The attack highlights the vulnerability of critical infrastructure in the Gulf region, where 90% of drinking water comes from desalination. Short-term or long-term power outages have a direct impact on the daily lives of millions of people.
Experts say limited rainfall and dwindling groundwater make desalination essential for large urban centers.
Any interruption, even if brief, could cause serious problems in water supply and test the sustainability of society and the economy in the region.
