UAE reports large fire at oil port after drone attack from Iran
We’re also hearing from local officials in Fujairah, who say a large fire has broken out at the key UAE oil port after it was hit by a drone attack from Iran.
Fujairah is the Emirates’ biggest port and oil storage facility. Before the ceasefire, it was also targeted in drone attacks.
In a statement shared on social media, the Fujairah Government Media Office says civil defence teams are working to contain the fire.
