Iran has escalated its offensive in the Gulf by targeting the United Arab Emirates with missiles and drones, striking near Abu Dhabi and injuring at least six people after intercepted debris sparked fires in an industrial zone. UAE authorities confirmed the five injured were Indian nationals and one is Pakistani national. The Abu Dhabi media office has now reported a third fire at the site. The attack comes amid rising geopolitical tensions following reports that Abu Dhabi may align with the United States and Israel to secure the Strait of Hormuz—a move that Tehran views as a major provocation. As missile interceptions continue and regional stakes rise, fears of a broader Gulf escalation are intensifying.
