A young Arab drowned to death in the sea off Ajman, Emarat Al Youm reports.
 
The maritime rescue team of the Civil Defence said it recovered his body which has been transferred to the Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed hospital in Ajman.
 
The Ajman Civil Defence used unmanned aircraft technology (drones) to find and recover the body.
 
Colonel Nasser Rashid Al Razi, head of the Department of Information and Public Relations of Ajman Civil Defence, said that after receiving a call of the man drowning, teams launched search and rescue operations but unfortunately, the man was pulled down by the waves.
 
Al Razi added that the man was swimming when he was swept away due to the strong current.
 
Al Zari appealed to beachgoers not to swim in dangerous places, especially in the afternoon, and called them to follow the signs found on beaches.  
 
He also urged parents not to neglect their children while at the seaside.
