Five people were injured, and two fires broke out in Abu Dhabi on Saturday as a result of debris falling from a ballistic missile interception, the Emirate’s media office said.

Abu Dhabi authorities were dealing with the fires in the vicinity of Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi, or KEZAD, part of Abu Dhabi’s AD Ports Group, economic cities and free zones.

AD officials posted on X that the relevant authorities are responding to the fire incidents that stemmed from intercepting a ballistic missile.

They followed up on the previous post adding that, “The incident has resulted in injuries ranging from moderate to minor sustained by five individuals of Indian nationality.”

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that Tehran would exact a “heavy price” for what he described as Israeli attacks on key industrial and nuclear infrastructure, as hostilities between the two sides intensified.

In a social media post, Araghchi said Israel had struck two of Iran’s largest steel factories, a power plant and civilian nuclear facilities, adding that Israel claimed the operation was carried out in coordination with the United States.

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards echoed the warning, urging workers at industrial sites with American ties or links to Israel to “leave their workplaces immediately,” signalling the possibility of further retaliatory strikes.
