Three civilians killed
A preliminary investigation indicates small flying objects, likely drones, fell in both incidents and may have triggered the blasts, the UAE’s state-run WAM news agency said on Monday. Three people -- two Indians and one Pakistani -- were killed and six others injured in the fuel-tank fire close to the storage facilities of state-run oil group Adnoc, Abu Dhabi police said in a statement.

I've been reading The Ministry For The Future, and it was absolutely a case of "here's a bunch of direct action ideas written as fiction lol don't sue me," at times. Coordinated drone attacks being cheap and relatively easy for conducting asymmetrical warfare seems like a no brainer. Sure wonder if we'll see more of such sabotage in the coming years :soviet-hmm: It'd be such a shame if people realized rich idiots and oil infrastructure were vulnerable this way.
With how often Houthi attack oil infrastructure, I'm beginning to think they're the most successful ecoterrorists in history
