Wednesday, 9 October 2019 16:53

Dubai has added another unique achievement to its name. This time it's the world's first 'floating police station'.

The smart facility will be located on the World Islands, off the emirate's coast.

A model of the automated station has been unveiled by Dubai Police at GITEX.

It comes more than two years after Dubai opened its first smart police station (SPS) at City Walk.
