Blasts heard in Dubai, Manama

Explosions were heard in Dubai and Bahrain’s capital Manama on Saturday, one week into Iran’s retaliatory attacks on targets around the Gulf.

Two blasts were heard in Dubai and one in Manama, where a warning siren sounded.

“Citizens and residents are urged to remain calm and head to the nearest safe place,” Bahrain’s interior ministry posted on X.

A minor incident caused by debris after a successful interception has been contained and with no reported injuries, the Dubai Media Office said on X.

It also denied reports circulating on social media regarding any incidents at the Dubai International Airport.
