Dubai: A series of explosions were reported from the Jebel Ali industrial area in Dubai a few hours ago. It is not known whether the explosions were the result of drone or missile strikes or an industrial accident. According to Iraqi news outlets, a missile attack was launched on the United Arab Emirates (UAE) from Yemen amid the ongoing US-Iran war. The Emirati media has, however, published no official account about the cause of the explosions, as reported by NDTV. Jebel Ali, located roughly 25 miles to the south west of Dubai city centre, is one of the UAE’s crucial shopping hubs.
