DUBAI was forced to temporarily close its airport early yesterday, after an Iranian drone hit a fuel tank in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

As morning broke yesterday, a drone hit a fuel tank near Dubai International Airport, the world's busiest for international passenger traffic, causing a large fire. Firefighters were able to contain the blaze and there were no injuries reported, but the airport temporarily suspended all flights before resuming them a few hours later.

Later yesterday, a person was killed in Abu Dhabi, the UAE capital, when an Iranian missile hit a vehicle, the Abu Dhabi media office said. Fire also broke out at an oil facility in Fujairah, one of the UAE's seven emirates, following a drone attack.
