DUBAI: Several loud explosions rang out early on Wednesday in the United Arab Emirates’ Dubai, AFP journalists said, as Iran continued to target Gulf countries with its retaliatory strikes.
The authorities said air defenses were “responding to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran,” with the UAE saying it has been the target of over 2,000 Iranian drones and missiles since the start of the war.
