The attacks launched by the US and Israel on Iran escalated on Saturday, with retaliatory strikes hitting nations across the Gulf.

Hours into what the Trump administration is calling Operation Epic Fury, Iran responded with attacks on more than six countries, from the United Arab Emirates to Bahrain. Iran said it targeted bases that host US forces in the Middle East.

Satellite pictures also show extensive damage to Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei's residence. Khamenei was killed on Saturday, though it is still unclear if he was at the Tehran compound when it was struck.

Intercepted missiles were seen streaking across the sky in Dubai, a tourist hotspot, and their debris appeared to spark fires and other issues. Fairmont's famous luxury property on the Palm was hit.

Chaos was also abound at airports, amid mass flight cancellations as planes scrambled to clear the airspace over Iran.

The UAE government directed schools and universities to adopt remote learning from Monday for three days. It also urged private sector companies to allow remote work for employees until Tuesday.

A Crowne Plaza hotel in Manama, Bahrain's capital, was damaged.

"Debris resulting from an aerial interception" hit a southern Dubai port berth and did not cause injuries, per the city's media office.

Smoke was also seen billowing from the port.

Smoke rose over the Palm in Dubai, previously a glittering oasis of calm.

One of the buildings hit in Dubai was Fairmont's property on the Palm.

Waves of explosions rocked Iran's capital, Tehran.

On Sunday, Qatar said it addressed a "minor fire" that did not cause injuries in its industrial area after a missile was intercepted.
