Downed drone sparks fire at UAE oil facility

Debris from an intercepted Iranian drone hit a large oil storage and export terminal in the port of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates on Saturday, causing a large fire but no casualties, the city's media office said.

It said firefighters were working to extinguish the blaze. Some oil loading operations were suspended.

The incident came shortly after Iran's military warned UAE civilians to stay away from port areas.

It's the second time the port has been hit since the outbreak of the war.

US facilities in the UAE 'legitimate' targets — IRGC

Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) on Saturday said attacking US military facilities in the United Arab Emirates was Tehran's "legitimate right."

It named US missile launch sites in "ports, docks and hideouts" in the UAE as potential targets.

US troops stationed in cities could also be subject to Iranian attack, it said, urging residents near sites that could be in danger of attack to seek safety.

The comments, made by an IRGC spokesman quoted by the Fars news agency, which is closely linked to the paramilitary force, came after the US struck Iran's main oil transit hub on Kharg Island
