As the Middle East conflict triggered by US-Israel strikes on Iran entered its fourth day, travelers left stranded began departing the UAE on limited evacuation flights.
The US State Department advised Americans in 13 countries, including the UAE, to 'depart now via commercial means due to serious safety risks.'
Airspace shutdowns and cancellations sharply reduced the ability of many to follow that guidance.
The conflict has intensified, with US President Donald Trump saying military operations could continue for several weeks.
Tehran and allied groups launched counterattacks throughout the region, targeting Israel and multiple sites in Gulf nations.
