Two Emirati Female Pilots Joined The Air Wing Of Dubai Police

Emirati pilots Dana Al Mazmi and Mohra bin Hammad have officially begun carrying out air missions for the Dubai Police, after a year’s worth of extensive training. 

The news of the two was shared by Dubai Police just a day before Emirati Women’s Day, and what better way to mark the accomplishments of Emirati women!

According to reports, both Dana and Mohra’s roles include search and rescue operations and air traffic patrols. The pilots joined Dubai Police in 2019 but had to undergo intensive training at the Horizon Helicopter Flight Academy prior to commencing their roles in the Air Wing. 

In a statement, Lieutenant-General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of the Police, said, “We in Dubai Police are proud of the great achievements of Emirati women at all levels, which confirms that in the United Arab Emirates we are moving forward with our ambitions towards leadership in all fields.”

Dana and Mohra have both expressed just how proud they are of the opportunity, vowing to protect and serve the country.
