Fujairah's media office said a drone targeted the Fujairah Oil Industry Zone, causing an 'advanced' fire with no casualties reported. It followed a Saturday blaze in the same oil zone sparked by debris from a drone interception, and WAM reported another tank-farm fire there early Tuesday.

Why it matters

Fujairah sits just outside the Strait of Hormuz, and CBS reported that the attacks were hobbling UAE oil operations while Brent stayed above $100.
