A dust storm eclipsed the Dubai skyline on Monday and residents warned others to stay indoors.

Residents across Dubai on Monday shared videos on social media of the city covered in orange dust.

In a video shared on Instagram by user Mohamed Hantoura, Dubai Marina can be seen enveloped in an orange cloud.
