Iranian drone strikes US consulate parking lot in Dubai — fire and black smoke; Rubio confirms all personnel accounted for; second US diplomatic facility hit in Gulf

A suspected Iranian drone struck the parking lot of the US consulate in Dubai, causing a fire with plumes of black smoke. Secretary of State Rubio confirmed all personnel accounted for: ‘A drone, unfortunately, struck a parking lot adjacent to the chancellery building and set off a fire.’ This is SEPARATE from the Riyadh embassy attack (which hit a CIA station per WaPo). Combined with Riyadh, Iranian drones struck US diplomatic facilities in TWO Gulf capitals — unprecedented targeting of US diplomatic infrastructure. UAE raised travel advisory.
