The UAE announced that authorities had responded to a fire that broke out in an electrical generator outside the inner perimeter of the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in the Al Dhafra region of Abu Dhabi following a drone strike, confirming that no injuries were reported and that there was no impact on radiological safety levels.

Authorities said all necessary precautionary measures were taken immediately after the incident, adding that specialized emergency response teams succeeded in containing and extinguishing the fire while continuing to monitor developments and implement measures to ensure the safety of the site and surrounding areas.

The Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation (FANR) said the fire had not affected the safety of the plant or the readiness of its core systems, adding that all units at the facility were operating normally and in line with the highest approved standards of safety and security.

The UAE Ministry of Defense said Sunday that air defense systems had dealt with three drones that entered the country’s airspace from the western border area, noting that two of them were successfully intercepted while the third struck an electrical generator outside the inner perimeter of the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in Al Dhafra.

In a statement, the ministry said investigations were ongoing to determine the source of the attacks, adding that further details would be announced once inquiries were completed.

The ministry stressed that the armed forces remained fully prepared to confront any potential threats and would respond firmly to anything that could undermine the country’s security and stability, ensuring the protection of national sovereignty and the UAE’s strategic interests.
