Individuals from Britain vacationing in Doha and Dubai described experiencing rocket attacks and forced evacuations. Air travel was halted for three days, leaving many thousands of travellers unable to depart. An estimated 300,000 British citizens are presently in areas targeted by Iran, with some seeking shelter in basements following warnings or loud blasts. This disruption began on Saturday when air traffic in the region ceased.
