About Iran-US war<\/p>\n

In a recent development, satellite images captured days apart show a dramatic change in Dubai’s skyline, with fresh pictures revealing thick black smoke rising over parts of the city after Iran launched a barrage of drones and missiles across the Gulf.<\/p>\n

Images taken on February 24 showed Dubai\u2019s orderly highways, glittering towers and artificial islands under clear skies. But by March 1, satellite photographs accessed by Reuters revealed dark plumes of smoke rising from sections of the emirate, particularly near coastal and logistics zones close to key transport and port infrastructure.<\/p>\n

The smoke appeared after Iran fired hundreds of drones and missiles toward Gulf states in retaliation for United States and Israel<\/a>i strikes on Iran that killed supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei <\/a>and other senior officials. While most projectiles were intercepted by air defence systems, falling debris caused localised damage and fires in Dubai.<\/p>\n

The broader escalation was triggered by a surprise US-Israeli bombardment of Iran. Tehran has since launched retaliatory strikes toward Israel and Gulf Arab states hosting US forces, vowing revenge. Israel has pledged what it called \u201cnon-stop\u201d strikes against Iranian leadership and military targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Actor Nargis Fakhri has opened up about being overwhelmed with anxiety and dread while stuck in Dubai amid…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":317634,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[530,458,1120,146,85,158425,46,158424,158423,109286],"class_list":["post-317633","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-anxiety","tag-celebrities","tag-dubai","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-iran-us-israel","tag-israel","tag-nargis","tag-rising-tensions","tag-us-iran-conflict"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=317633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/317633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/317634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=317633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=317633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=317633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
