Dubai: British tourist facing up to two years in prison over footage of missiles
A 60-year-old British tourist is among 21 people charged under the United Arab Emirates' (UAE) cybercrime laws in connection with videos and social media posts about recent Iranian drone and missile strikes.
The man, who has not been named, said he deleted the video from his phone immediately when asked to and had no intention of doing anything wrong, according to the legal advocacy group Detained in Dubai.
Nonetheless, he has found himself caught up in a wider group of charges over social media posts in the UAE, some of which have attracted widespread attention.
"The family is extremely worried," said Raphaella Stirling, a crisis manager at Detained in Dubai.
