One dead after fire at UAE gas site from intercepted attack

One person was killed and four others wounded after a fire at a gas complex in Abu Dhabi, caused by falling debris from an intercepted attack on Friday, the government media office said.

"One Egyptian national tragically lost his life during the evacuation of the site. In addition, four individuals sustained minor injuries: two Pakistani nationals and two Egyptian nationals," it said on X.

It also reported "significant damage" at the facilities, the latest fallout of the war in the Middle East.
