GateNews
According to Jin10, the UAE's Barakah nuclear plant, the Middle East's largest nuclear facility, was attacked by drones on Sunday (May 22). The UAE attributed the strike to Iraqi-based forces and Iranian militias, calling it a "terrorist act." The plant activated backup power systems following the attack, which caused no casualties or radiation anomalies. UAE presidential advisor Ghanem Al Mazrouei described the incident as a serious indicator of regional threats, while experts characterized it as an Iranian "warning" signaling that Gulf nations would face spillover effects if U.S.-Iran tensions escalate further.
