Dubai Airport closed on Saturday following an Iranian drone attack that forced passengers to evacuate the airfield.

Repatriation flights are operating with reduced passenger loads due to security screening and safety protocols, while airlines work to rebook affected passengers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
