Hundreds of thousands of passengers have found themselves stranded in the middle of a conflict between Iran and its Gulf neighbours
Holidaymakers on the first flights out of Abu Dhabi since Saturday have described their experiences up close as conflict erupted between Iran and its Gulf neighbours.
With thousands of flights cancelled across the Middle East, leaving hundreds of thousands of passengers stranded, the UK has begun forming evacuation plans for some of the estimated 300,000 Britons in the region.
While these plans form, a small number of flights have found their way out of the United Arab Emirates, including EY067, which landed at Heathrow just after 7pm on Monday.
As passengers came through arrivals 45 minutes later, they described their fear as missiles flew overhead.
