Iranian drone strikes on Dubai International Airport have led to significant flight cancellations, leaving approximately 115,000 Australians stranded overseas. The Australian government is urging citizens to register with the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for assistance.
Iranian drone attacks on Dubai and Abu Dhabi airports have resulted in one death and 11 injuries. The UAE's air defences intercepted the drones, but falling debris caused casualties and damage to airport facilities.
Iranian drone attacks have damaged Dubai International Airport and the Burj Al Arab hotel, with four airport staff injured and a minor fire at the hotel. No injuries were reported at the airport, and the fire at the hotel was swiftly contained.
