🇦🇪-United Arab Emirates, Fujairah | Satellite imagery reveals systematic strikes targeting critical oil infrastructure

A new set of satellite images shows the scale and precision of repeated attacks on Fujairah Port, one of the strategically most important oil export hubs in the United Arab Emirates.

The images document the following:

• Damage to crude oil storage tanks during the March 3 attack, with fires continuing to burn for days.
• Repeated targeting of distribution systems (Matrix manifolds); this is key infrastructure used to direct oil flow through the port.
• Pipelines and support systems were hit in subsequent attacks.
• Multiple confirmed impact points were detected across the port during the period between March and May 2026.

These damages are of paramount importance because Fujairah Port allows the UAE to export oil while bypassing the Strait of Hormuz, making it a vital alternative route in cases of regional conflict.

The series of satellite images shows that the strikes were not random but repeatedly targeted the core infrastructure of the port's ability to transport, store, and export crude oil.
