The online charity auction showcased a collection of 555 license plates for regular vehicles in Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi Police said the command and control centre received a call on Saturday evening and immediately sent out emergency and rescue teams to the scene.
Although the emergency responders tried to revive the 7-year-old after pulling him out of the water, they could not save him.
His brother, however, suffered from moderate injuries and is being treated at Al Rahba Hospital.
Lieutenant Colonel Nasser Al Zaabi, acting director of Yas Police Station, urged parents to not leave their children unsupervised in swimming pools and in beaches, particularly those that do not have lifeguards.
He expressed his deepest condolences and sympathies to the boy's parents, highlighting that it was a painful incident.
In September last year, four boys drowned in water pond in Al Bahiya, which is on the outskirts of Abu Dhabi.
The young victims included one 12-year-old Emirati, and three other Arab nationals aged 10,11 and 12. Among them were two brothers, police said.
