Dubai’s Worst Nightmare Unfolds as Iran Strikes Neighbors

Dubai’s nightmare scenario unfolded Saturday: Defense systems repelling Iranian missiles and drones over its famous skyscrapers, explosions and plumes of black smoke rising out of the city-state’s most celebrated neighborhood.

Local authorities said four people were injured in a fire at Palm Jumeirah, the man-made island that’s famous for its luxury hotels, resorts and attractions. A high-end hotel there was hit by parts of a missile that was either intercepted or got knocked off its trajectory.
