Ras Al Khaimah Police have launched a campaign to raise awareness among parents of the need to keep their children safe at all times.
As part of the "Our children…our responsibility" campaign, brochures containing advice and instructions on how to prevent common accidents have been handed out around the emirate, said Lieutenant Abdullah Ali Shalik, the acting head of community police section.
The brochures highlight the danger of letting children play near water, poisoning by pesticides, falls, incidents involving electricity, gas, bladed instruments, fires, cigarettes, and fireworks.
"Accidents involving children due to parents' neglect must be tackled," said Lt Ali Shalik.
He urged all parents to respond to the campaign and keep their children safe.

Day 4, Abu Dhabi Test: At a glance
Moment of the day Not much was expected – on Sunday or ever – of Hasan Ali as a batsman. And yet he lit up the late overs of the Pakistan innings with a happy cameo of 29 from 25 balls. The highlight was when he launched a six right on top of the netting above the Pakistan players’ viewing area. He was out next ball.
Stat of the day – 1,358 There were 1,358 days between Haris Sohail’s previous first-class match and his Test debut for Pakistan. The lack of practice in the multi-day format did not show, though, as the left-hander made an assured half-century to guide his side through a potentially damaging collapse.
The verdict As is the fashion of Test matches in this country, the draw feels like a dead-cert, before a clatter of wickets on the fourth afternoon puts either side on red alert. With Yasir Shah finding prodigious turn now, Pakistan will be confident of bowling Sri Lanka out. Whether they have enough time to do so and chase the runs required remains to be seen.
