Emirates indefinitely suspends all Dubai flights after attack.

Emirates has suspended its entire network to and from Dubai International Airport after a reported aerial strike on the United Arab Emirates early Saturday linked to the escalating confrontation involving Iran. Travellers inside the airport said blasts were heard as people took cover in underground train tunnels. The shutdown halts operations at the world’s busiest international hub and stops all connections through Dubai’s transit network, leaving tens of thousands of passengers stranded while authorities assess security conditions further today.
