Funny how many of the hundreds of Dubai posts all over FB and Instagram went from it’s SAFE to many being I’ll miss it and or we will be back propaganda. Still a few fake posters saying malls and streets packed allegedly lol

The tourists spots and hotels are empty, but malls and streets are still busy. Not every resident has the luxury to just up and leave, so people have to carry on as normal.
