A suspected Iranian drone strike near Dubai Inte ational Airport triggered a massive fire at a fuel storage tank early Monday, sending thick smoke and flames into the sky and temporarily halting flight operations. Authorities confirmed the blaze was linked to the drone impact, prompting precautionary suspension of flights at one of the world’s busiest airports. Emergency crews battled the fire for hours, and limited flight services have since resumed as the situation comes under control. No injuries have been reported, but the incident highlights heightened regional tensions as the Iran‑linked conflict expands, with disruptions to global air travel and airline schedules.
