Ajman police cars replace sirens with night lights



AJMAN // Nine police cars have been equipped with an advanced night lighting system, which will be used to replace sirens.

The patrol vehicles have also been converted to run on natural gas, reported Al Ittihad, the sister newspaper of The National.

At night, the lights can be seen from a distance, meaning they can be used instead of sirens in residential areas so as not to disturb people as they sleep.

Brigadier Sheikh Sultan Al Nuaimi, Chief of Ajman Police, said 50 vehicles will eventually be equipped with the new lights.

How it works

Each player begins with one of the great empires of history, from Julius Caesar's Rome to Ramses of Egypt, spread over Europe and the Middle East.

Round by round, the player expands their empire. The more land they have, the more money they can take from their coffers for each go.

As unruled land and soldiers are acquired, players must feed them. When a player comes up against land held by another army, they can choose to battle for supremacy.

A dice-based battle system is used and players can get the edge on their enemy with by deploying a renowned hero on the battlefield.

Players that lose battles and land will find their coffers dwindle and troops go hungry. The end goal? Global domination of course.

If you go

When Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi

  

 

 

 

Known as The Lady of Arabic Song, Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi on November 28, 1971, as part of celebrations for the fifth anniversary of the accession of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan as Ruler of Abu Dhabi. A concert hall was constructed for the event on land that is now Al Nahyan Stadium, behind Al Wahda Mall. The audience were treated to many of Kulthum's most well-known songs as part of the sold-out show, including Aghadan Alqak and Enta Omri.
