Three oil-laden tankers exploded in the Musaffah industrial zone in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), after a drone attack. A fire broke out at the Abu Dhabi Airport construction site following the attack, according to Abu Dhabi police. Two Indians and a Pakistani were killed and six others were injured in the attack. The Iranian-backed Houthis in Yemen took the responsibility of the attack in an announcement after the attack.
The Houthis have been in control of some areas in Yemen since September 2014. The Saudi-led coalition forces, on the other hand, have been supporting the Yemeni government against the Houthis since March 2015.
