The UN chief urges international community to work together to prevent any actions that could push the entire Middle East over the edge
Hail and snow was reported on the Jebel Jais, the UAE's highest peak. Ahmed Al Shehi, an Emirati, shared a video that showed hail pelting him atop the mountain.
Hail fell for about eight minutes in Dubai's Jumeirah area. B.V., who stays at a villa on Al Wasl Road, said: "The lawn in front of our house was blanketed by a sheet of white. The kids in the house came out and played with it. I even ate a piece!"
In Sharjah, hail hit the Taawun area. Saima Salim, who works in the area, said: "I have never experienced hailstorm before. We were working on our laptops when we we heard sounds that seemed like someone was throwing stones at our window. We all ran down to find ice on the streets. We had so much fun."
R. Troudi, a resident of Umma Al Quwain's Salma area, also reported hail.
The National Centre of Meterology (NCM) had earlier forecast "freezing rain or snow" over some of the country's mountain peaks for Sunday.
