khaleejtimes.com/uae/sharjah-flood-relief-volunteers-reach-breaking-point-members-suffer-from-illness-exhaustion
Quick Glance: Sharjah Flood-Relief Volunteers Struggle with Exhaustion and Illness
- Hundreds of families in Sharjah affected by the floods are in dire need of help, while volunteers who have been aiding in flood relief for the past five days are now on the brink of burnout.
- Despite the arduous conditions, many volunteers are showing visible signs of exhaustion, while others have succumbed to illness due to prolonged exposure to contaminated waters.
- Efforts to pump out the floodwaters remain sluggish, with the stagnant, dirty water posing significant health risks and becoming a breeding ground for dangerous diseases and pathogens like dengue, cholera, and diarrhea.
- Efforts to alleviate the distress caused by the floods have also mobilized hundreds of volunteers from local organizations like Markaz Dubai, operating in areas such as Sharjah's industrial area, Al Majaz, Abu Shagara, and others.
