Middle East conflict escalates with UAE embassy attack. The UAE's consulate in Iraqi Kurdistan's Erbil faced a drone strike early Tuesday, causing damage but no casualties, amid ongoing tensions from US-Israeli operations against Iran since February 28. The UAE's foreign ministry condemned the attack as a dangerous escalation and violation of international law, though it did not identify the drone's origin. This incident follows the UAE's complaints about being unfairly targeted despite remaining neutral in the conflict. Meanwhile, Australia announced defensive support, deploying surveillance aircraft and advanced missiles to the UAE to protect Gulf airspace. US President Trump signaled the conflict could end soon, suggesting lower oil prices for American families. Trump characterized the military campaign as temporary, stating the operation aims to eliminate threats in the short term.
