Key UAE Oil Hub Resumes Some Operations After Another Strike
The key port of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates resumed some operations after a drone strike, the latest in a series of hits threatening the country’s only oil export route outside the Strait of Hormuz.
A drone attack caused a fire in a petrochemicals area, the Fujairah Media Office said Monday. People familiar with the matter had said earlier that oil loadings had resumed after a brief halt. Another person close to the development, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential matters, said later that crude oil loadings from Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. were still suspended.
