Authorities in Fujairah announced Monday that a fire broke out in the Fujairah Petroleum Industry Zone (FOIZ) after being targeted by an Iranian drone. Civil Defense teams were immediately dispatched to the site and are currently working to contain the blaze. According to medical sources, three Indian nationals sustained moderate injuries in the attack and have been transported to the hospital for treatment. In a related statement published by the Emirates News Agency (WAM), the United Arab Emirates strongly condemned a separate 'terrorist' attack on an ADNOC tanker. The vessel was targeted by two Iranian drones while transiting the Strait of Hormuz; however, no injuries were reported in that specific incident. The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed that such actions represent a flagrant violation of UN Security Council Resolution 2817, which guarantees the freedom of navigation and prohibits the targeting of commercial shipping in international waterways. Additionally, the UAE Ministry of Defense confirmed that its air defense systems successfully intercepted four missiles launched from Iran on Monday. Three of the missiles were engaged and destroyed over the country’s territorial waters, while the fourth fell into the sea. Authorities urged the public to rely only on official news sources and to follow safety instructions as they continue to monitor the regional escalation.
