Take a look at several pages that show how the Gulf News, the leading newspaper in the United Arab Emirates, covered the crash of FlyDubai flight 981, with destination Rostov-on-Don, Russia.

Editor Abdul Hamid Ahmad and design director Miguel Angel Gomez sent me the pages you see here. Both expressed pride in their teams and how quickly they were able to assemble intensive coverage.

While the digital platforms carried constant updates of the story via http://gulfnews.com, the print edition concentrated on highly personalized, human interest stories about the victims with testimonials from those who knew them.
