Out of these, 518 were for failure to wear face masks as part of Covid safety protocols.
Authorities in Dubai recorded 4,400 violations for a variety of offences during the first quarter of the year. The method used to record the violations? Drones!
According to Al-Bayan, the first-of-its-kind project in the region helped control street security and pursue offenders in an innovative way, as drones are equipped by high technology that enables them to identify wanted faces in high resolution and take photos in alleys and narrow places.
