Explosion Rocks Dubai Airport by ogododo(op): 12:43pm On Mar 07

An explosion was heard over Dubai airport on Saturday followed by a cloud of smoke in the air, a witness told AFP, as Iran pressed attacks across the Gulf.

The Flightradar24 tracking website showed planes circulating above the airport in an apparent holding pattern.

Limited flights resumed from Dubai’s main airport, the world’s busiest for international traffic, on Monday despite daily drone attacks on targets in the United Arab Emirates.

Dubai Media Office described “a minor incident resulting from the fall of debris after an interception” in a post on X, but also denied reports circulating about the airport in the same post.

Four staff were injured and a concourse damaged at Dubai airport last Saturday, as war erupted following US-Israeli strikes against Iran.

Dubai Airports said at the time that the incident was “quickly contained”, without giving further details.

Iranian attacks have also hit Abu Dhabi airport, the upmarket Palm Jumeirah development and the Burj Al Arab luxury hotel, while drone debris caused a fire at the US consulate in Dubai on Tuesday.

Why must Iran now focus it's attack on fellow Islamic nations ?
Destroying Dubai has no effect on USA.
Trump will ensure he achieved his purpose on Iran.
UAE has been a peaceful tourist nation. It's destruction,tho will indirectly affect so many other countries. But that won't save Iran from been cleared of its terrorist activities.

Because it's only Israel that understands this guys well well angry

Let USA just give Israel the required go ahead
Re: Explosion Rocks Dubai Airport by Helinuse: 6:59pm On Mar 07
Funny thing is that Iran has the ideology of d3ath.

Meaning, no matter how they lose, they will never surrender. They enjoy the losses incurred.

This gives them the ability to provide Nigerian Iranians the space to claim victory.

The same way Hamas fights up till today, and Nigerian Palestinians are claiming that Hamas is winning, and Israel is loosing.
😅😅😅


But I like Israel, they make happy with one thing: unlike Americans who will defeat you and still leave some space for you to brag, Israelis defeat with a decisive victory. They defeat and leave the evidence for all to see. Check out Gaza 😅😅😅

Actually it will. If the economies of Middle Eastern nations are affected, so will that of the US.

Its like your opponent is a very strong man who lives far from you and you cant approach him before his guards deal with you.

But his children and businesses live in the same street as you. By attacking them, you are attacking the strong man.

If Arab oil flow is disrupted, the entire world will feel it. Remember 1973 and 1990.
Re: Explosion Rocks Dubai Airport by oyeb15: 7:00pm On Mar 07
Maybe it's because other Muslim nations are intercepting their missiles.

This is purely a needles war. But Iran had prepared for something like this for decades.

If you accommodate a stranger in your house and he picks a fight with your neighbor and started destroying your neighbors properties, then your neighbor decided to start destroying your assets you borrowed your visitor that made him comfortable enough to fight. What will you as the house owner do?
Re: Explosion Rocks Dubai Airport by SuperEagles: 7:05pm On Mar 07

Imagine how useless Iran is by attacking fellow Muslims countries.

I sad it that religion is one of the worst mistake of humanity.

Isreal and US pounded you and you are pounding innocent countries that belong to the same yeye religion that hate peace.

Shame on Iran.

Abraham all is your fault, the wahala you created due to your lack of patient gave birth to a demon that ended up as forefather of a vampire religion of pieces.

I don't ven know what in this word will make me to respect that religion, nothing and absolutely nothing..

Re: Explosion Rocks Dubai Airport by buygala(m): 7:08pm On Mar 07
US action in Middle East has vindicated Russia refusing Ukraine's joining NATO

Imagine the US using Ukraine as a base for attacking Russia, same way it has used these Arab Nations to attack Iran...All while the US mainland lives on in peace undecided

Worst part is that the US has proven incapable of protecting those allies who allows it to use their country as a base to prosecute the war..

Very soon, countries will wisen up and US will have to attack and defend from their own country ..Anytime they feel.like spreading "democracy and freedom", they will have to do so at the risk of their own public and infrastructure, not that of other countries...

Israel can't do anything more than what they're doing.
Israel can only fight when US is backing them.
Iran is well beyond their reach.
Iran is pummeling and bombing them every night with little or no response.
Iran is the new superpower in the Middle East and that rankles Israel to no small measure.
All Gulf states that hosts US military bases will collect.
Ask yourself, why hasn't Iran attacked Oman despite being well within range?
Cos Oman doesn't host US bases/isn't an overt ally.
Iran is beyond Israel as at today. The nearest contender is probably Pakistan

That airport is a vital evacuation route for American citizens, a strategic logistics hub for a key regional ally, and a central target in Iran's efforts to exert economic pressure on the U.S. and its partners.

Iran wants to bleed US and Israel dry. Trump was warned but he chose not to listen.

Major US Military Assets Destroyed

The primary drivers of these financial losses include high-value radar and communications systems:

AN/FPS-132 Early Warning Radar System: Struck by an Iranian missile at Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, this system is valued at approximately $1.1 billion.

THAAD Radar System: An AN/TPY-2 radar component of a THAAD missile battery in Jordan was reportedly obliterated, with another system in the UAE also targeted. This component is estimated to cost between $300 million and $500 million.

F-15E Strike Eagles: Three aircraft were lost due to a friendly fire incident involving Kuwaiti air defences on 1 March. Replacing them is estimated to cost $282 million.

Satellite Communications (SATCOM) Terminals: Two AN/GSC-52B terminals, valued at approximately $20 million, were destroyed during a strike on the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet headquarters.

This is just half of the list, these destructions have totally incapacitated the US in this war
