Three “traumatized” survivors of an Iranian drone strike have been arrested in Dubai after sending photos of the explosion to their loved ones, according to reports.
The trio was trying to reassure their relatives after being caught up in last Wednesday’s strike, which damaged an apartment complex.
“Instead of receiving victim support, they were locked up by Dubai police,” Radha Stirling, the CEO of the group Detained in Dubai – an organization that helps victims of injustice, wrote on X.
Dubai has strict cybercrime laws – with penalties ranging from hefty fines of approximately $54,000 and a minimum of 2 years in prison. It is illegal to publish or share material that could disturb public security.
Last week, a British tourist, 60, was arrested for allegedly filming Iranian missiles flying over Dubai, according to CNN.
