Nuclear nightmare in Abu Dhabi: Drone strikes Barakah power plant, fire raging after Iran's warning

Multiple explosions rocked Abu Dhabi on May 17, triggering alarm across the Gulf amid soaring regional tensions linked to Iran and the Strait of Hormuz crisis. Reports claimed drones targeted the Barakah nuclear power plant in the Al Dhafra region, sparking a fire near the facility and raising fears over critical infrastructure security. UAE authorities said no casualties were reported and that the plant continued operating normally, with no impact on radiological safety levels. The incident came just hours after senior Iranian adviser Mohammad Mokhber warned Gulf states that Tehran’s restraint “is not perpetual,” accusing regional governments of supporting U.S. military actions against Iran and Palestine amid the escalating confrontation.
