00:00An Iranian drone attacked near the main terminals of Dubai International Airport.
00:06Temporarily suspended operations this morning.
00:09Black smoke could be seen above the airport terminal following a loud bang.
00:14We are hearing that operations are slowly resuming.
00:18Euronews correspondent Lily Dows was actually on board an Emirates flight on the tarmac,
00:24ready to depart when the attack happened.
00:26She was evacuated to a safe space underground in the main terminal with her fellow passengers.
00:33Now this comes as the Iranian Interim Leadership Council just yesterday said
00:37they would not attack neighbouring countries unless they were attacked by them first.
00:43Now the public alert warnings have been ringing out across the UAE and also in Qatar this morning
00:50as people were advised to take cover.
00:53And obviously the governments are continuing to manage and monitor the situation.
