'Everything has changed': Missile attacks shatter Dubai's safe haven image

Recent missile attacks have begun to erode Dubai's long-held image as a secure and prosperous haven, particularly among its expat and influencer communities. The shift in perception follows Iranian strikes, introducing a new element of geopolitical instability to the region. This development challenges Dubai's established reputation for safety and could influence future decisions by international residents and businesses considering the emirate. The altered perception highlights how regional conflicts can impact even seemingly distant economic and social hubs.
