MUSCAT, March 11 (Xinhua) -- Multiple unmanned aerial vehicles were intercepted and brought down in Oman, while several drones struck fuel storage tanks at the Port of Salalah, a security source told Oman News Agency on Wednesday.
No casualties were reported following the incident.
Authorities are deploying all available resources to monitor and counter the attacks, the source said, adding that measures are being taken to safeguard the country's security as well as the safety of citizens and residents.
The attack comes amid escalating tensions across the Middle East following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran that triggered retaliatory missile and drone attacks by Tehran targeting military bases, energy infrastructure and maritime assets in several Gulf states. ■
