The UAE activated its air defense systems on Tuesday after Iran launched missiles and drones toward the country, Abu Dhabi authorities announced.
Video: Fire at Fujairah port following the Iranian drone strike
Social media users reported that residents of Dubai – the country's largest city – heard explosions in the direction of Jebel Ali port. No casualties or damage from the attack had been confirmed at that stage. The strike was similar in timing and scale to an Iranian attack carried out on Monday, which caused extensive damage to an energy facility near the city of Fujairah. Three foreign workers were wounded in that strike, and a large fire broke out at the site.
