The waters of Dubai Marina mysteriously turned orange on Thursday.
Residents were quick to share their concerns on social media suggesting that an oil spill could be responsible for the change in colour.
A spokesperson from Dubai's Municipality said they had not yet identified the cause and a team of officials had been sent to inspect the site on Friday morning.
"There are some speculations that the spillage can be from a near by construction or from groundwater", the spokesperson said.
Residents said the water was still strangely coloured on Friday morning.
A sightseer was just feet away from death as 50,000 tons of chalk gave way and a cliff collapsed into the sea in East Sussex
A sightseer was just feet away from death as 50,000 tons of chalk gave way and a cliff collapsed into the sea, claiming the life of a woman in her 20s.
The cliffs at Seaford Head in East Sussex have been hit by three unexpected collapses in just two days.
The first happened on Wednesday afternoon, taking a huge section of the coastline with it. Yesterday afternoon there was another collapse, before a giant crack tore into an 80ft chalk-face leading to the third cliff fall last night.
Now photographs have emerged of people peering over the edge of Birling Gap, which is roughly six miles from where the cliffs collapsed at Seaford yesterday.
Rescuers yesterday found the body of a woman in her 20s who is believed to have fallen from a clifftop around the time of the dramatic rockfall.
And as the Coastguard has issued a warning urging people to avoid the area, photographs have come to light which show a person teetering near the edge despite the imminent danger.
Crews with Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium are removing a dead pilot whale that was discovered on a Sarasota County beach on Friday morning.
Sarasota County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to Point of Rocks Beach around 3 a.m. after receiving reports about a 12-foot-long whale that had washed ashore.
Crews with Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium were called to help remove the sub-adult, pilot whale from the beach.
Marine biologists will likely try to determine what the whale died from.

On June 20th, a thunderstorm in Austria unleashed a spectacular display of lightning. Observers on the ground witnessed blinding flashes of crackling light. The most amazing aspect of the outburst, however, was to be found high above the clouds. 80 km high, to be exact, in the realm of the sprites:
Martin Popek photographed the display from his private observatory in Nýdek, Czechia, more than 500 km away from the storm. Such distances are ideal for seeing above the tops of towering thunderclouds:
"Jellyfish sprite events like these are produced by very impulsive cloud-to-ground lightning flashes draining positive charge from the stratiform rain region in large thunderstorms," explains lightning scientist Oscar van der Velde of the Technical University of Catalonia, Spain. Somehow, in a process that researchers only partially understand, the resulting electric fields draw jellyfish forms out of the cloudtops.
Halos are a sign of high thin cirrus clouds drifting 20,000 feet or more above our heads.
These clouds contain millions of tiny ice crystals. The halos you see are caused by both refraction, or splitting of light, and also by reflection, or glints of light from these ice crystals.
It is called a 22-degree halo because the ring has a radius of approximately 22 degrees around the sun or moon.
It was the second death this year caused by lightning. The first occurred in Colorado on May 7.
According to an incident report, construction worker Guadalupe Salinas was working on a pool and clubhouse in northern Martin County when he was struck.
