999 Only for Real Emergencies | Dubai News

UAE Emergency Number Day kicks off on September 9th, urging everyone to use 999 only for true emergencies like fires, crimes, or life-threatening accidents — every second counts. The Ministry of Interior is teaming up with police nationwide to clear the lines for critical calls, while educating the public on how to give clear, accurate info — especially your location — to help responders save lives. For non-emergencies, dial 901 instead. This campaign isn’t just about avoiding misuse — it’s about building a smarter, more responsible emergency response culture that keeps first responders focused where they’re needed most.
