In a 'rescue mission' that has won hearts all over the internet, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of UAE and Ruler of Dubai, and Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, came together to help a bird near a construction site in Dubai.

Sheikh Mohammed and Sheikh Mohamed met in Dubai last week and travelled to a forest area where they spotted a houbara bustard bird laying eggs near a project site.

They immediately ordered to shift the project to another part of the area to protect the bird and its eggs.

The video was posted on Instagram by Lieutenant-General Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, where it has received over 21,000 views in just three hours, along with hundreds of comments praising the leaders.
