UAE blames Iran for drone strike that caused fire at nuclear plant in Abu Dhabi

The UAE says three drones entered from the west and one struck an external generator near the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant.

The impact caused a contained fire, with no injuries, radiation leak, or disruption to reactor operations.

UAE officials blamed Iran or Iran-backed allies for the attack.

The incident heightens fears over civilian nuclear security and further regional escalation amid stalled diplomacy.
