To wonder what happens to the maids and nannies etc when people flee Dubai/the Middle East

[morningmists]

I saw news stories of lots of pets being left behind, but I can't see any mention of the maids and nannies etc ? I am guessing it wouldn't always be simple to get them to England due to visas etc -so do they get booked on flights back to their homes?

My mum had a nanny growing up and she loved her as much as she loved her mum so I imagine this is a hard separation for some

Female genital mutilation (FGM) is prohibited in government-run hospitals and clinics in the UAE by the Ministry of Health, even though the country historically did not have a comprehensive standalone anti-FGM law covering all contexts.

Yes, since 2020. But perfectly legal in all clinics and hospitals not run by the government. And a destination for international FGM ‘tourism’.

Vile. I can't believe this isn't publicised more.

Interesting
