Iranian missiles hit a US naval base in Bahrain, clouds of smoke were seen rising from the Juffair area and emergency sirens sounded, civilians were evacuated to safe places, and the US base at Al-Udeid in Doha echoed with explosions.
Qatari authorities have claimed to have shot down several missiles in mid-air. An Iranian ballistic missile attacked a US base in Abu Dhabi. Several missiles were destroyed in mid-air. One person was killed in the Iranian missile attack. Explosions were also heard in the Dubai Marina area.
The United Arab Emirates activated the ballistic missile shield to stop Iranian missiles. Flight operations from Dubai Airport were temporarily suspended. The airport is in a state of chaos. The routes to and from the airport were closed to traffic.
