A major fire erupted at Dubai International Airport early Monday as Iran continued missile and drone attacks across Gulf states in retaliation for the war initiated by the US and Israel a fortnight ago, further rattling the region.Flight operations were temporarily halted amid the disturbance and heightened security concerns in the region.However, there was no injuries reported and the civil defence team “successfully contained” the fire, avoiding the chances to impact a fuel tank in the vicinity.Videos circulating after the drone attack show massive flames and thick smoke billowing from parts of the airport complex.The blaze reportedly followed Iranian drone strikes near one of the world’s busiest airports and a major global financial hub, with Tehran’s escalating attacks increasingly threatening key Gulf cities such as Dubai and Abu Dhabi.Meanwhile, regional powers including Qatar and Saudi Arabia condemned the Iranian strikes across the Gulf.
