ISTANBUL

Two Israelis were “lightly injured” after debris from a drone struck the compound housing the Israeli Embassy in Abu Dhabi, the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth reported Sunday.

According to the report, the two Israelis were wounded by a blast wave following the impact of debris inside the embassy compound, where Israeli emissaries reside.

Earlier Sunday, the UAE Defense Ministry said that two Iranian drones targeted a warehouse at Al-Salam Naval Base in Abu Dhabi leading to a fire in two containers storing general materials.

The US and Israel launched an attack on Iran on Saturday, killing several top Iranian leaders, including supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Tehran retaliated with a series of drone and missile attacks that targeted Israel, US assets and several Gulf countries.

Israel and the US launched a similar attack on Iran last June, triggering a 12-day war before a ceasefire was announced.
