Smoke has been seen rising from a major oil hub in the United Arab Emirates after an Iranian drone attack. The port of Fujairah, near the vital Strait of Hormuz, transports hundreds of thousands of barrels of oil every day.
The Fujairah Media Office stated that flames erupted at the site when debris from a captured drone fell, although no injuries were reported.
Citing sources, Reuters and Bloomberg reported that some oil loading operations in the emirate had been suspended following the drone incident and the ensuing fire. The statement from the Fujairah Media Office did not mention any disruption to oil loading activities.
The incident comes a day after the United States struck Iran's Kharg Island, a key facility for Iranian crude oil exports. Iranian officials later warned that they could target ports and docks in the United Arab Emirates in retaliation.
