The U.S. Embassy in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has warned U.S. citizens of “reports of a possible missile or drone strike” over Abu Dhabi as the UAE blamed an overnight blast on a gas cylinder explosion.
The UAE’s state news agency reported on Feb. 9 that Abu Dhabi Civil Defense teams put out a fire caused by a gas container explosion in a building on Hamdan Street and that there were no injuries resulting from the blast.
