Dubai is usually regarded as one of the most safest locations in the world and it has been this way for many years. But due to the prevailing situation in the Middle East, Iran has been relentlessly targeting Dubai with air strikes and artillery attacks.

On that note, Indian athlete and Badminton legend PV Sindhu, who had been stranded at the Dubai International airport as a part of an ongoing tour has shared a new video.

“I wanted to share a quick update and firstly thank you all who have been reaching out and checking on us. I was transiting from Bengaluru, where I train and live full-time now, to Birmingham in the UK to compete in the All England Championships.

Once our flight landed in Dubai, events beyond our control began to unfold and shortly after, the airspace was shut down, she said.

Sindhu added that the last few hours have been extremely tense as they could hear the sounds of interceptions overhead and a few hours later there was an explosion very close to where they were holed up at Dubai airport.

Sindhu’s coach was barely about 100 metres away from where it happened and had to quickly move out of the area.

Experiencing something like this in such close quarters truly shakes you. You never expect these things to happen to you or anyone close to you, but sometimes situations are beyond your control, she concluded.

We sincerely hope Sindhu gets out of this danger without any further incidents and she returns to India at the earliest.
