Emirati university student, 20, killed in Al Dhaid Road crash

A 20-year-old Emirati university student from Ras Al Khaimah tragically lost her life in a road accident on Friday. The collision occurred when a tanker carrying petroleum products veered into the lane of the car she was in, striking the side where the young woman was seated. Her female colleague, who was driving, sustained a fracture to one hand but survived the incident.

The two students were returning from UAE University in Al Ain when the accident took place. According to the deceased student's family, they had initially planned to take a minibus ride back to Ras Al Khaimah, but another classmate offered to give them a ride in her private car. The kind-hearted student agreed to accompany the driver, hoping to ensure her friend would not have to travel alone.

This act of friendship resulted in a devastating tragedy as the car was struck by the tanker on Al Dhaid Road, claiming the life of the 20-year-old student. Her classmates and friends remembered her as kind-hearted, generous, and always ready to help others. Her friends noted her kindness through everyday acts of generosity and compassion.

After Friday prayers, funeral prayers were held for the young woman, and she was laid to rest at Al Oreibi Cemetery.
