Yemen’s army and their allies have staged a drone strike on Dubai International Airport in retaliation for UAE’s role in stepped-up Saudi attacks on the impoverished country, a television report says.
A Samad-3 drone hit the world’s third busiest airport during several attacks early Sunday, al-Masirah TV network reported, citing an informed source at the drone unit of Yemen’s army and popular committees.
Yemen’s army and popular committees announced their first retaliatory attack on Dubai airport in August, disrupting air traffic which Emirati authorities rejected.
The UAE is part of a Saudi bombing campaign and ground invasion which has faced heavy criticism for a high civilian death toll in its airstrikes and for a crippling air, sea and land blockade on much of Yemen.
