<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n As tensions continue on day 10 of the US\u2013Israel\u2013Iran conflict, UAE authorities have issued a series of updates affecting security, travel, markets and daily life. Here\u2019s what UAE residents need to know right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The United Arab Emirates Ministry of Defence has confirmed that\u00a0air defences are currently addressing a missile threat. Residents are advised to remain in safe locations and follow all warnings and updates from official channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Major General Ibrahim Nasser Al Alawi, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Defence,\u00a0visited Abu Dhabi Police field and specialised units to review operational readiness and gain insight into the workflow of various departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During the inspection, the Undersecretary received briefings on field operations, operational mandates, and the measures undertaken to enhance efficiency and readiness. He highlighted the role of the Police Force in supporting security and stability across the emirate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Oil prices across the Gulf have surged as concerns grow over shipping routes and regional security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n UAE carriers have begun\u00a0resuming limited flight operations amid ongoing regional airspace restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Passengers are advised to avoid travelling to the airport unless contacted by their airline or holding a confirmed booking, as all flights remain subject to safety checks and operational clearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Officials have reassured residents that the country\u2019s food supply remains stable and well stocked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n During a visit to the Al Aweer fruit and vegetable market in Dubai, Economy and Tourism Minister Abdulla bin Touq Al Marri said consumer goods and food products continue to arrive from global suppliers and are available across UAE markets at stable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Authorities in\u00a0Fujairah responded to a fire near the Fujairah Oil Tanks area\u00a0after debris from air defence interceptions fell nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Officials confirmed that no injuries have been reported, and updates will be provided if the situation changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The UAE Ministry of Defence released\u00a0footage showing air defence systems intercepting Iranian drones\u00a0targeting the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to officials, the unmanned aerial vehicles were detected and destroyed before reaching their intended targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Diplomatic Adviser to the President Anwar Gargash said the UAE\u2019s response\u00a0reflects the values of the nation\u2019s founding father Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In a post on X, Gargash said the UAE\u2019s leadership and people are facing the situation with resilience, unity and capability, guided by the principles established by Sheikh Zayed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here’s a series of updates affecting security,
