Serious penalties have been established for the circulation of risky videos on BAA.
New and strict rules have come into effect for tourists in the United Arab Emirates. Zamin.uz reported on this matter.
According to The Guardian, individuals who record videos of missile attacks or other dangerous incidents within the country and share them on social networks may face severe penalties. In this process, tourists risk being deported or imprisoned.
Based on official information, spreading such video footage is punishable by fines of up to $54,000. Additionally, the disseminated material is classified as cybercrime and inciting public concern, leading to legal liability.
To date, a total of twenty individuals have been identified for violating these rules. Among them is a 60-year-old tourist who is a citizen of the United Kingdom.
Police officers found a video depicting a missile attack from Iran to Dubai on this individual's mobile phone. This incident drew the attention of national security officials, prompting swift action.
According to official explanations, any information regarding an incident should not be disseminated to the public until verified by official sources. Content that may cause concern requires a cautious approach. Tourists are asked to be accountable for their actions and comply with the regulations.
These strict measures were adopted to maintain stability within the country and prevent panic among the population. Given that similar incidents may increase in the future, all visitors are required to operate only in permitted areas and according to established procedures.
