Workers at a Dubai labour camp are staging a rare strike after a melee with security guards.
A company official overseeing the workers said the riot broke out late on Saturday after long-standing allegations of mistreatment by the guards.
The official from Jams HR Solutions described the damage as "huge" with at least 40 buses destroyed and furniture and windows smashed.
Police remained at the site today as the 2,000 workers, most of them South Asians, refuse to leave for various construction sites.
