3 die in suspected drone attack in UAE
A suspected drone attack targeting an oil facility in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates, has killed three people. Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility. The UAE backs forces fighting the rebels.
The Emirates' state-run news agency said three fuel trucks caught fire following explosions at the facility of a state-owned oil company on Monday.
The dead were two Indian nationals and one Pakistani. The attack also left six others wounded. Police suspect a drone was used in the assault.
An investigation is underway into a possible link between the attack and a fire that broke out on the same day in an area of Abu Dhabi International Airport that was under construction.
