Dubai suffered some damage on Monday amid the ongoing war in the Middle East between US and Israel on one side and Iran on the other.
Following a drone attack on the Fujairah Oil Industry Zone, a fire was reported in the area. However, authorities said that civil defense crews were working to bring the fire under control.
The attack on Fujairah took place almost simultaneously with a drone strike on a fuel tank near the Dubai International Airport, forcing its closure.
Dubai airport gradually resumes operations
On Monday morning, following the strike, the Dubai International Airport announced a temporary suspension of operations and a diversion of flights to the Al Maktoum International Airport.
Hours later, authorities announced that flights were gradually resuming from the Dubai International Airport.
Later, on Monday night, authorities confirmed that the fuel tank fire near the airport had been extinguished.
