Deaths in country due to cloud seeding?

The record rainfall and flooding in Dubai that has claimed the lives of at least 20 people this week directly followed government cloud seeding missions, according to reports.
Cloud-seeding is a form of geoengineering using planes or cannons to shoot particles into clouds to attract more moisture and increase rainfall.
The UAE government, which has practiced cloud seeding since 2002 to enhance the desert country’s water security, reportedly launched at least seven cloud seeding missions on Monday and Tuesday, immediately before record levels of rain hit Dubai. The government’s National Center of Meteorology has denied this claim, however.
Whether or not cloud-seeding missions immediately preceded this week’s rain and flooding, the government’s cloud-seeding endeavors are undoubtedly at least partly responsible for the country’s recent increase in rain. The UAE has experienced a significant rise in rainfall in the past few years, and a report in the journal Nature predicts that precipitation is expected to increase by 15 percent to 30 percent in the coming years. This week’s rainfall was the country’s heaviest since record-keeping began in 1949.
The Dubai disaster is certain to be used by critics as an example of the dangers inherent in man’s attempts to alter nature’s course through geoengineering. At present, government-backed geoengineering experiments are taking place across the globe, largely intended to combat ‘global warming.’ Earlier this month, Tennessee became the first state in the U.S. to approve legislation banning geoengineering.

They could use the rain. That place stays pretty dry.

Soooooooooooooo
The weird conspiracy theorists who have been saying that the government manipulates the weather is actually not a conspiracy theory after all huh?

Are there conspiracy theories around cloud seeding? Real talk, I've never heard of one before. Is it similar to chemtrails?

Someone mentioned on social media today that the real issue is the government is spraying metal particles in the air and that one day we will all get lit up from 5G towers. LOL

The weather was shitty, lots of wind and rain where I live in downtown Abu Dhabi with ocean view on the Corniche. But heavy flooding here, meh.... On one side of the city yes, but it cleared up fairly quick. Dubai, on the other hand, had a lot of flooded areas as it is a much larger place, low areas, and the busy Dubai airport had to shut down for a while.

Make it rain on them hoes

Most deserts can’t handle a lot of rain.
The soil gets saturated very quickly and you get flash flooding, which is exactly what they are having.

Cloud seeding is pretty old technology. Nothing conspiratorial about it. There was a significant NOAA program seeding hurricanes with silver iodide to cause them to weaken by inducing eye wall replacement. First done in 1961 and again in 1963 if I remember.

So the government deliberately caused climate change.
