An ATP Challenger tennis tournament in the United Arab Emirates was interrupted after a “security alert” linked to Iranian strikes on targets in the Gulf region, launched in response to attacks by the United States and Israel.
Falling debris from the interception of a drone on Tuesday caused a fire in an oilfield located about 15km (nine miles) from the site of the tournament on the men’s second-tier global circuit.
