UAE expresses condolences to Philippines over Typhoon Co-May victims

The UAE extended its heartfelt condolences and expressed solidarity with the Republic of the Philippines following the devastation caused by Typhoon Co-May. The storm brought heavy rainfall and battered Luzon Island, resulting in multiple deaths, injuries, and widespread damage. In an official statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Mofa) conveyed its sympathy to the families of the victims, as well as to the Philippine government and the Filipino people. The Ministry also wished a swift recovery to all those who were injured in the disaster. According to the Philippine National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC), at least 25 people have died as of 6am Friday (July 25) due to the combined impact of the southwest monsoon (locally known as habagat), and three other tropical cyclones. The figures were reported by In the capital, Manila, floodwaters from relentless rains brought the city to a standstill earlier this week. The Marikina River overflowed after a night of intense rainfall, prompting authorities to suspend classes and close government offices across Manila and nearby provinces. The Philippines is no stranger to such weather events. The country is struck by an average of 20 storms or typhoons each year, with its most vulnerable communities often bearing the brunt of the destruction. Experts warn that climate change is intensifying these storms, making them deadlier and more destructive as global temperatures continue to rise.

Watch: Rains, tornado-like dust devil storms hit some parts of UAE

As the summer heat intensifies, parts of the UAE have been treated to a refreshing shift in weather. Scattered showers over the past few days have brought welcome relief, particularly across the country's eastern region. Today is no different. Videos shared by Storm Centre captured showed rainfall pouring onto roads in areas such as Safi. In one video, rain lashes a car's windshield, obscuring visibility and hinting at the intensity of the downpour. Another clip shows water pooling along the roadside, forming shallow puddles that glisten under the grey skies. However, the rainfall wasn't just a gentle drizzle. In some locations, it was heavy enough to disrupt driving conditions and obscure views, prompting authorities to step in with safety advisories. #Ù�رÙ�ز_اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© 28_7_2025 — Ù�رÙ�ز اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© (@Storm_centre) July 28, 2025 View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ù�رÙ�ز اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© Ù�Ù�راÙ�بة اÙ�Ø·Ù�س Ù�اÙ�ذذÙ�ر اÙ�Ù�Ù�اخÙ� اÙ�Ù�ؤسس omar alnauimi (@storm_ae) Abu Dhabi Police issued a weather alert for Al Ain, urging motorists to drive cautiously in light of the rainy conditions. The authority also urged motorists to adhere to variable speed limits displayed on electronic road signs. #Ù�رÙ�ز_اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© 28_7_2025 — Ù�رÙ�ز اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© (@Storm_centre) July 28, 2025 But it wasn't just rain turning heads. Storm Centre also shared a striking video of a massive sandstorm. The swirling gust of sand appeared to shoot skyward in a funnel-like shape, resembling a tornado. The storm was so intense that it blanketed the affected area in a brown-ish haze. Watch the video below, as shared by Storm Centre: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ù�رÙ�ز اÙ�عاصÙ�Ø© Ù�Ù�راÙ�بة اÙ�Ø·Ù�س Ù�اÙ�ذذÙ�ر اÙ�Ù�Ù�اخÙ� اÙ�Ù�ؤسس omar alnauimi (@storm_ae) Some residents on Sunday (July 27) also observed a massive sandstorm or a gustnado — a small, short-lived whirlwind that often appears during strong thunderstorms, especially in desert climates. Unlike true tornadoes, gustnadoes are not connected to a thunderstorm cloud base. Though less destructive than full-scale tornadoes, they can still kick up sand and debris, causing visibility issues and posing risks for motorists. Summer rains in UAE While summer rain may seem surprising to some, meteorologists say it's not entirely uncommon in the UAE. But while the occasional rain during the season brings respite, residents still need to be careful and take serious precautions to prioritise their health and safety. Summer in the UAE isn't just uncomfortable — it can be dangerous. Prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures can lead to serious health conditions, especially for vulnerable groups like the elderly, children, pregnant women, and those with chronic illnesses.
