Bloomberg reported partial closure of UAE airspace

The authorities of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have imposed restrictions on flights in their airspace just a few days after the full restoration of air travel. This was reported on May 5 by Bloomberg, referring to the official notification for pilots and staff.

"For the first time in several weeks, the United Arab Emirates partially closed its airspace after Iran launched missiles and drones towards the UAE — this is the heaviest outbreak since the ceasefire less than a month ago," the article says.

The airspace was partially closed over the UAE, and now flights are allowed only on certain routes. The restrictions have been imposed at least until May 11, the agency said.

The publication clarifies that flights bound for Dubai and neighboring emirates are forced to wait in a special zone outside the country, and several planes have already been redirected to Oman.

Bahrain has taken the initiative to use "all necessary means" for this.

A day earlier, a fire broke out in Fujairah, UAE, at an oil industrial facility (NGO) as a result of a drone attack from Iran. The UAE Defense Ministry added that three missiles were intercepted over the country's airspace. Another shell flew into the sea.

On May 4, the Central Command of the US Armed Forces (CENTCOM) announced that the United States would begin supporting the Freedom Project on May 4 in order to restore freedom of navigation for commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz with the participation of 15,000 military personnel.

On the same day, the head of the White House, Donald Trump, said that the Iranians would be "wiped off the face of the earth" if they attacked American ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
