At least four people have been injured after two drones fell near Dubai airport as attacks on infrastructure across the Gulf continue to disrupt air traffic.
Bahrain’s Civil Aviation Affairs said several Gulf Air aircraft, without passengers, and some cargo air planes, were relocated to alternative airports to “ensure the continuity and efficiency of air operations” during the crisis.
Tracking data on FlightRadar24 showed several passenger jets moving to locations in Saudi Arabia over the past 24 hours.
Dubai’s media office confirmed two drones fell near the airport.
However, it added air traffic was operating as normal, with no visible damage reported at the airport.
The US-Israel war against Iran has led to tens of thousands of flight cancellations, reroutings and schedule changes worldwide, shutting much of the Middle East’s airspace and sparking a mission to repatriate British nationals.
