War / UAE

Anxiety through the roof as I’ve been texting all day with a friend who lives in Dubai.

The Emirates have been under retaliatory missile attack for hours… the first strikes targeted military bases but they have since moved to other targets. The Fairmont Hotel at Palm Jumeirah was hit by debris… my friend reports seeing jets overhead and hearing frequent loud booms.

You may not see this in the news but Reddit’s UAE community has tons of first-hand accounts: https://www.reddit.com/r/UAE/
