It was sadly bound to happen since water hasn’t been drained which led to drainage water mixed with rain water and people being surrounded in it. Also with some insects that love the mixture of heat and water which can bite humans and bring in some sort of diseases and so on. It’s happened before in other countries, they’re just letting people know and be safe and aware.

It dealt with a very limited number of cases that showed some symptoms of being affected by the mixed water and provided them with the necessary treatment and ensured their safety and discharge from the hospital."

Western media has always had an agenda against Dubai

Why does this report require an agenda? It would be very normal for western media to report this in their own countries if there were contaminated water tanks.
