DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - Police arrested hundreds of South Asian workers on Tuesday who smashed office windows and set fire to cars during a strike for higher wages.
One diplomat described the unrest as the worst violence at a labor camp in the Arab Gulf in years.
Police said that at least 500 workers carried out "subversive acts" at a work camp in the emirate, or state, of Sharjah, according to the official state news agency, WAM.
