Meanwhile, Brigadier Dr. Hassan Suhail Al Suwaidi, Director of the Ports Police Station, noted that the Ports Police Station, in cooperation with Dubai Police's various general departments, continuously works to enhance security and safety in its areas of jurisdiction.

He noted that signing the MoU to refine the Dubai Police Smart Boat Project (Haddad) reflects Dubai Police's commitment to employing the latest technologies and expertise in maritime security, adopting projects and ideas that support the operations of the Ports Police Station, and establishing partnerships with relevant entities to achieve common goals.

Mr. Patrick Campagnoli, Business Director for Southern Europe, Middle East, and Africa at Radio Holland Middle East, remarked that Dubai Police consistently adopts the latest technological innovation solutions to maintain its leading global police status.

"Through this partnership with Dubai Police, Radio Holland Middle East aims to participate in one of the world's most ambitious security projects and contribute to realising Dubai Police's future vision," he said.
