AFNIC's FloodGuard: Why motorists should opt for FloodGuard
In recent years, extreme weather conditions have become increasingly common. Flash floods, storms, and tempests have caused significant damage to vehicles, often catching car owners off guard — especially those without comprehensive motor insurance. To bridge this critical protection gap, Al Fujairah National Insurance Company (AFNIC) has presented an innovative, standalone solution: Motor Flood & Storm Relief Insurance, branded as FloodGuard. What is FloodGuard? This exclusive product offers protection against accidental loss or damage to your car solely due to specific weather-related perils: Flood, Inundation, Storm, and Tempest (FIST). It is designed for vehicles not insured under comprehensive insurance, including those insured only under a Motor TPL Policy. Who can avail FloodGuard? Eligible vehicles include privately-owned or company-owned cars used strictly for private and pleasure purposes. Commercial vehicles, pickups, buses, motorcycles, and cars used for hire or reward are excluded. Key features at a glance Standalone Protection: Independent of your existing TPL insurance, even if it's with another insurer. Annual Policy Term: Covers a full 12 months (not 13 months). Loss Limit-Based Coverage: Claims are capped by a chosen Loss Limit, not the market value or sum insured. Currently available at Dh25,000 and Dh50,000 Loss Limits. Reinstatement Option: Replenish the Loss Limit post-claim with additional premium. Total Loss Payouts: Up to 90% of Depreciated Market Value (DMV) or Loss Limit — whichever is lesser. Weather Data Authentication: Claim eligibility based on UAE's National Centre of Meteorology reports. Repair Coverage: Non-agency repairs only; agency repairs excluded. Cash Loss Option: Choose to receive cash instead of repairing the vehicle. Some of the major exclusions to note: No cover during the first 15 days (unless it's a continuous renewal). Damage while desert driving, dune bashing, or traversing wadis, rivers, lakes, or beaches — even if dry. No replacement car, rent-a-car, or loss of use benefits. Gradual damage or pre-existing damage is not covered. Policy ends upon sale/transfer of vehicle or total loss claim. Quick and easy purchase options: Policies can be easily obtained by accessing AFNIC's website or dedicated portal via QR Code or direct Link. The entire process can be completed in just a few steps — in less than five minutes. Prefer a personal touch?

Large blaze contained at Sharjah's Al Hamriyah fuel depot after 24-hour battle
Helicopters and firefighting equipment were used to bring a blaze at a fuel depot in Sharjah's Al Hamriyah Port under control on Saturday. No casualties were reported by Sharjah Civil Defence, who battled black smoke and raging flames from about 6.10am after the fire was sparked by the ignition of petrochemical substances. With specialists in fire and chemical safety brought in from across the country, the incident is believed to have started in a warehouse and was brought under control at 6.25am on Sunday, officials said. After the alarm was raised, a unified response system was activated in a joint operation overseen by civil defence units from across the Emirates, the Ministry of Defence, National Guard and Joint Aviation Command, the military air division. Chinook helicopters could be seen unloading gallons of water from buckets onto the flames. Municipalities of Sharjah and Al Hamriyah were also involved in the co-ordinated response to control the incident. The emergency action limited damage to surrounding property, emergency services said. Maj Gen Abdullah Mubarak bin Amer, commander-in-chief of Sharjah Police and chairman of the Local Emergency, Crisis, and Disaster Management Team in Sharjah, said there had no been no loss of human life, and urged the public to follow official sources of information on the incident. Maj Gen bin Amer hailed the efforts of emergency units from across the country who worked in tandem to prevent the large fire from spreading. He said forensic teams will conduct investigations on site to determine the cause of the blaze and assess the damage caused, the results of which will be announced once concluded. Fire crews will remain on site on Sunday as dampening down of the affected area continues, to prevent further outbreaks, with temperatures expected to reach 40°C through the day.
