UAE reports large fire at oil port after drone attack from Iran

We’re also hearing from local officials in Fujairah, who say a large fire has broken out at the key UAE oil port after it was hit by a drone attack from Iran.

Fujairah is the Emirates’ biggest port and oil storage facility. Before the ceasefire, it was also targeted in drone attacks.

In a statement shared on social media, the Fujairah Government Media Office says civil defence teams are working to contain the fire.

    What about the US and Israel launching an illegal war of aggression under the perfidious cover of negotiations, the second time in 8 months.

    Can we blame them for that or is that also “they did it first” Schoolyard hijinks?

      Sure we can. This is a bullshit war that nobody but Netanyahu wanted.

      What we can put under school yard shenanigans however, is your attempt at baiting me because you didn’t like my opinion.

      Grow the fuck up people.

        The usa and the major western countries wanted it. They just didn’t want one that would cause too much damage to the global economy
