The Fujairah Police launched a campaign titled “Together We Fight Drugs”.

The campaign, which will run until the end of December, aims to educate the community about the dangers of substance abuse and its impact on health.

Lieutenant Colonel Khaled Rashid Al Saadi, deputy director of the Anti-Narcotics Department of the Fujairah Police, said social media accounts were constantly trying to lure young people into addiction. He asked parents to monitor their children and their online activities.

Al Saadi added that the campaign is in line with the emirate’s strategy, which includes raising awareness among residents to prevent crime.

Capt. Tariq Saeed Al Dhanhani, head of Fujairah Police’s media and public relations department, said the campaign aimed to intensify awareness programs on social media platforms to remind community members of the anti-drug laws.

Awareness sessions will be held for all, he added. They will emphasize the importance of how families can come together to prevent substance abuse.
