A fresh wave of explosions rattled major cities across the Gulf on Monday, including Dubai, Doha and Abu Dhabi, as Iran intensified its missile campaign following the killing of its Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have announced what they described as a “large-scale" attack, marking the third consecutive day of strikes in response to US-Israeli air raids on Iranian cities.
Loud blasts were heard across the Qatari capital Doha, Bahrain’s capital Manama and the United Arab Emirates’ most populous city. In Bahrain, the interior ministry confirmed that one person was killed in the latest round of Iranian strikes, according to reports.
Earlier on Sunday evening, Tehran launched massive strikes across the Gulf states including Doha, Riyadh, Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Blasts were also reported in Manama, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Israeli officials had confirmed that five people were killed and dozens were injured in the missile attack.
The UAE’s defence ministry said three people had died and 58 were injured in the country since the start of Iran’s strikes.
