Drone Strike at Dubai Airport and Casualties in Abu Dhabi
It was reported that flights were temporarily suspended on Monday due to a fire caused by a drone strike at the international airport in Dubai. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The incident occurred in the fuel storage area near the airport, which led to several planes being redirected to other cities and the airport's operations being temporarily halted. Dubai officials confirmed that emergency services quickly extinguished the fire and that there was no threat to human life.
At the same time, similar incidents were observed in other parts of the UAE. In the Al-Bahyan district of Abu Dhabi, a rocket hit a civilian car, resulting in the death of a Palestinian citizen.
In the industrial zone of Fujairah city, another drone strike caused a fire, but civil defense personnel quickly brought the situation under control, and no clear information about casualties has been received. These events occurred against the backdrop of Iran continuing rocket and drone attacks after the joint strikes by the US and Israel on Tehran on February 28.
The security situation in the Gulf states has intensified, with Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia announcing that they have timely identified the incoming threats and taken measures against them. Saudi Arabian officials confirmed that they destroyed several waves of drones from the country's eastern regions.
The UAE has become one of the most affected countries during the conflict. According to official data, since the start of the war, more than one thousand eight hundred rockets and drones have been launched into UAE territory by Iran.
With the addition of the United Kingdom and Jordan, the Gulf states strongly condemned the attacks and called for a reduction in regional tensions. The leaders of the UAE and Saudi Arabia pledged to protect their territories and ensure stability together with the international community.
The region's population and state leaders are mobilizing all resources to prevent new attacks in the future and maintain peace.
