The Emirates News Agency reported on Monday that a fire broke out in the morning, which led to the explosion of three petroleum tankers in ICAD 3, Mussafah, near ADNOC's storage tanks, in addition to a minor fire near the new construction site of the Abu Dhabi International Airport.

According to the police, initial investigations suggest that "the cause of the fires are small flying objects, possibly drones, that have targeted the two areas."  They added that "competent authorities have been dispatched," and an investigation is ongoing.

The spokesman for the Yemeni forces General Yahya Saree tweeted that an important statement will be published to announce a military operation in the UAE in the coming hours.
