I think what my, you know, the rest of the world was getting fed at the time this was all happening.
And this all happened so quickly, even for us.
It was definitely terrifying, I think, because at the beginning, all you're hearing is these explosions.
We're not actually understanding what's happening politically.
You don't have an idea what's happening.
You also, I personally, and I know I can speak for a lot of people, didn't have any idea how an air defence system actually works.
So I think when you're just hearing explosions, you don't know if that's a missile hitting a building or that's an interception happening.
Over the coming days, even though it was really unsettling and honestly the sound of that noise I don't think is something you'll ever forget, the government of the UAE did such an amazing job educating us on how the system actually worked and what's actually happening and if you hear that noise it's actually a positive thing.
I think as we learned about it, you became a bit more at ease.
It's still unsettling.
Like you don't like knowing these things flying over your head and you're looking outside and you're seeing these like clouds of smoke, which is a sign of an inception.
So I think over the coming day, like the first 24 to 48 hours were for sure really fucking scary.
And, you know, you're hearing like airspace closing down and all that.
But then as time went on and obviously, you know, it's been over,
got a month now, 40 days, and it's still happening.
Dubai's economy is still booming.
Everything's still running as best to its ability.
I think everyone's just a little bit unsettled, but I have full faith in our government and I do feel safe.
I think it's just a bit of like an uncertain time and you're just a bit more uncertain about the other countries and what's going on there as opposed to the UAE itself.
It wasn't on my bingo card to learn about it.
