Four people, including an Indian national, were injured after two drones fell near Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates. The Dubai Media Office said the drones were shot down before landing near the airport area. Officials said airport operations were not disrupted and flights continued as normal. The incident comes as tensions rise across the Gulf after Iran launched waves of missiles and drones toward several countries in the region. Authorities said security forces are intercepting incoming threats. Meanwhile, a precautionary shutdown was reported at the Ruwais refinery after a drone strike caused a fire in the nearby industrial zone.
