According to a social media post, the National Search and Rescue Centre carried out a rescue and medical evaluation mission at the Shoka Mountains in the area, Khaleej Times reported.
The Ras Al Khaimah Police Operations Room had received a report that the 21-year-old was suffering from severe fatigue and was unable to move due to heat exhaustion.
