According to Russian tourists who are in the market, "at about 12 o'clock a crowd of young people ran into the market, and they started throwing bottles of gasoline at shops and pulling out valuables."
"Here anarchy began. Marauders are fighting shop assistants. There is black smoke and the smell of burning everywhere. Policemen are nowhere to be seen," said Aleksey Sadchenko, a Russian tourist.

Of course, the staff is not up to tourists! Maybe they have relatives in "hot spots", but they don't even know if they are alive? Staff are people too! And they are not having fun now ... Let's be humane and kind-hearted!

Russia is planning how many planes to send to evacuate Russian citizens.
And do you think that in a critical situation everyone can be taken out?
And how long will food and water last in hotels?

Dubai airport (UAE) landed one after another 19 private planes arriving from Cairo. According to the Associated Press, representatives of the Egyptian business elite and their families flew to them.
According to unofficial data, among those who fled from Egypt were close relatives of Naguib Siviris, the head of the telecommunications company Orascom, which is considered one of the largest in the world. True, it is still unclear whether N. Siviris himself was on board the liner.
The personal fortune of N. Siviris is estimated at 2.5 billion US dollars.
There is evidence that Hussein Salem, the owner of a large hotel chain and a close associate of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, also fled to Dubai.

I don’t know about Turkey, but Oman can be. They, too, are not very happy with the state of affairs in the country. I can only say that of all the Arab countries I have visited (and there were not many of them), the standard of living is higher than ours, only in the UAE. So, best friends are emirates.
