Fujairah Civil Defence conducted a rescue operation on Saturday to save a hiker who had passed out from fatigue. The National Search And Rescue Centre (NSRC) shared a footage of the mountainside rescue, which showed the man being flown by a team member. Fujairah Civil Defence was the first to respond to the distress call. The NSRC's operating room staff then transferred it to auxiliary operational systems. To evacuate the patient, the crew swiftly dispatched rescue aircraft. The patient was quickly moved to Dibba Hospital in Fujairah for additional medical treatment. BKM/ Expat Media
