Dubai: An explosion was heard over Dubai International Airport on Saturday, followed by a cloud of smoke in the air, according to a witness who spoke to AFP, as Iran continued attacks across the Gulf region.

The flight-tracking website Flightradar24 showed several aircraft circling above the airport in what appeared to be a holding pattern.

Meanwhile, the Dubai Media Office said in a post on X that there had been “a minor incident resulting from the fall of debris after an interception.”

In the same post, authorities also denied reports circulating online about a direct strike on the airport.

Further details about the incident were not immediately available.
