The U.S. has told Americans across the globe to exercise caution after the United States and Israel struck Iran early on Saturday.
Americans "worldwide" should be more careful than usual following the joint strikes and Iran's retaliatory attacks across the Middle East, the U.S. State Department said.

Iran Strikes Hit Dubai, Abu Dhabi Airports
One person was killed and seven others injured after debris from an intercepted drone damaged Zayed International Airport in Abu Dhabi, Emirati authorities said on Sunday.
Four staff members were wounded at Dubai International Airport—a major transit hub—after the terminals were mostly evacuated of travelers and the site sustained "minor damage" in an unspecified incident, officials said.
