Which place completes this sentence about Masfout? Digging water wells in the exclave was banned by the ______ government as water depletion became an issue with over 80 unregulated wells sunk into the area's aquifers.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. Ajman
Masfout is a village in the Masfout exclave, which belongs to the Emirate of Ajman, one of the seven emirates of the UAE. As more than 80 unregulated wells were draining the local aquifers, the Ajman government banned digging new ones. Jumeirah and Bur Dubai are districts of Dubai, and Madinat Zayed is in Abu Dhabi emirate, not Ajman.
