One person was killed and four others wounded after a fire at a gas complex in Abu Dhabi, caused by falling debris from an intercepted attack on Friday, the government media office said.

“One Egyptian national tragically lost his life during the evacuation of the site. In addition, four individuals sustained minor injuries: two Pakistani nationals and two Egyptian nationals,” it said on X.

It also reported “significant damage” at the facilities, the latest fallout of the war in the Middle East.

Authorities confirmed that two fires erupted at the Habshan Gas Processing Plant following the fall of debris after a successful air defence interception.

Emergency response teams acted swiftly, bringing the situation under control, officials said.

Authorities said the fires caused significant damage to the facilities, with assessment operations still underway to determine the full impact.

In a separate incident in the Ajban area, falling debris from intercepted threats injured 12 people.

Authorities said six Nepalese and five Indian nationals sustained moderate injuries, while one Nepalese national was critically wounded.

The incidents come days after a similar episode on March 19, when the Habshan facility was temporarily shut following missile debris fallout.

No casualties were reported in that incident, though Abu Dhabi’s Bab oil field was also struck the same day.

The UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs earlier condemned an Iranian attack targeting key energy infrastructure, including Habshan and the Bab field.
