Video verified by the BBC shows a fire raging at Fairmont The Palm Hotel. Thick black smoke rises into the sky.

Dubai authorities said that four people were injured in a blaze at a building in the Palm Jumeirah area, and that the fire was brought under control. The statement did not go into further detail on the incident.

Elsewhere in the region, Qatar, Bahrain, Jordan and Kuwait - all home to US military bases - said they had intercepted missiles fired towards them.

 

Huge plumes of black smoke were seen rising from an area near the headquarters of the US Navy's Fifth Fleet in Manama, Bahrain. The extent of any damage is unclear and the US has not commented.

 

In Doha, Qatar's defence ministry said it had intercepted several missiles apparently targeting the al-Udeid air base, the largest US base in the region.

Another verified video filmed from a building opposite the Dubai hotel shows the moment of impact followed by an explosion, as a large orange fireball erupts and the person filming appears to falls to the ground.

 

 

 

 

Large smoke plumes could be seen rising above the five-star luxury hotel as emergency services attended the scene.

 

Iranian media earlier said that it had launched an attack on Dubai, although it is not clear what they are targeting.

 

The UAE ministry of defence said in a statement on X that it intercepted a number of drones and missiles, and called the Iranian strikes a "blatant violation of national sovereignty and international law".

 

The US has about 13 military bases across the Middle East, with 30,000 to 40,000 troops normally deployed between them.

 

 

 

 

Authorities in Bahrain confirmed the attack on the US naval base, known officially as Naval Support Activity Bahrain. It is the home port for ships including anti-mine vessels and logistical support ships, though it is unclear if any were present.

 

Video from Bahrain's capital, Manama, shows the moment a drone hits a tower block, exploding into a brilliant yellow fireball.

 

 

 

 

Explosions were heard in Kuwait, and the local news agency Kuna said that a drone targeting the international airport caused "minor injuries to several employees" with "limited" damage to a terminal.Your safety remains our highest priority…  

 

 

 

 

We are closely monitoring developments, and our frontline heroes are taking all necessary measures to protect the public and ensure their safety. 

 

May our nation, and all who call it home, remain safe.

DUI Lawyer Cost: What You Should Expect to Pay

DUI Lawyer Cost: What You Should Expect to Pay

A DUI charge can create serious problems, including fines, license suspension, higher insurance rates, and possible jail time. Many people facing this situation want to know the average DUI lawyer cost before hiring an attorney.

The cost of a DUI attorney depends on several factors. These include your location, whether it is a first offense, whether there was an accident, your blood alcohol level, and whether the case goes to trial. A simple first-time DUI case may cost less than a case involving injuries, repeat offenses, or felony charges.

What Affects DUI Defense Cost?

The biggest factor in DUI defense cost is the complexity of the case. If the attorney needs to challenge a breath test, blood test, traffic stop, arrest procedure, or police report, the legal work may take more time.

Some attorneys charge a flat fee, while others charge hourly. A flat fee may cover basic court appearances and negotiation. However, trial work may cost extra.

Why Hiring a DUI Lawyer May Help

A drunk driving lawyer can review whether the traffic stop was legal, whether the test was properly handled, and whether your rights were protected. A lawyer may also negotiate for reduced charges, alternative sentencing, or license protection when possible.

Final Thoughts

DUI lawyer cost can vary, but the long-term cost of a DUI conviction can be even higher. Before making a decision, compare experience, fees, and what services are included.

Personal Injury Law: What You Need to Know After an Accident

    Personal injury law is designed to help accident victims recover compensation after incidents like car accidents, workplace injuries, or medical negligence. When someone is injured due to another party’s actions, they may be entitled to financial recovery for medical bills, lost income, and emotional distress. This makes topics like accident claims, injury compensation, and legal representation highly relevant for people seeking immediate help.

Taking the right steps after an accident can significantly impact the outcome of a case. Gathering evidence, seeking medical attention, and speaking with an experienced personal injury attorney are all critical actions. Many successful claims depend on early intervention, proper documentation, and understanding your legal rights from the beginning.
