One Killed, Seven Wounded in Abu Dhabi Airport ‘Incident’

At least one person was killed and seven wounded during an “incident” at Abu Dhabi’s Zayed International Airport, officials said Sunday after Iranian strikes targeting the UAE and Gulf states.

“Abu Dhabi Airports confirmed an incident at Zayed International Airport that resulted in one death of an Asian national and seven injuries,” the body that manages the airport said in a statement posted on X.

Meanwhile, the UAE said the vast majority of the 137 missiles and 209 drones fired at its territory by Iran were destroyed or intercepted, the defense ministry said, as Tehran launched a barrage of projectiles at Gulf states after being attacked by the US and Israel.
