A drone fell on a building near Dubai's Creek Harbor area, sparking a fire on Wednesday. The Dubai Media Office confirmed the incident, and evacuation procedures were carried out to ensure everyone's safety.

Videos of the building on fire quickly went viral on social media, with authorities responding to the incident.

Dubai has been targeted by Iranian forces amid the ongoing conflict, which started after a joint US-Israeli strike killed Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei.

Civil Defense teams brought the minor fire under control, and no injuries were reported. The authorities ensured all residents were safe.

Creek Harbor is a posh neighborhood in Dubai offering luxury apartments and hotels. Several areas of Dubai have been attacked since the conflict began, including Jumeirah Palm and the Dubai airport.

The UN Security Council slammed Iran for attacking its neighbors, condemning the indiscriminate attacks on civilians and calling for freedom of navigation in international shipping lanes.
