Earlier on Monday, Dubai's international airport temporarily suspended flights after a fuel tank fire caused by a drone attack.
The airport is now gradually resuming flights.
Monday's incident, causing a fuel tank blaze but no injuries, is the third attack on the Dubai airport since Iran launched assaults on Gulf nations on February 28, with strikes Tehran says aim at the U.S. presence in the region.
While the United Arab Emirates and other Gulf countries host US military facilities, Iran has used missiles and drones to target civilian facilities such as airports, hotels and ports.
Flights in the region are at about half their usual level, though their number has risen since the start of the war.
Drone and missile fire has regularly kept aircraft circling Dubai's busy airport, heavily affecting Middle East tourism worth about $367 billion a year. Air freight rates have also surged as much as 70% on some routes.
In a statement on X, the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority flagged a "gradual resumption" of some flights to selected destinations, the Dubai Media Office said.
Emirates airline said it expected to partially resume operations at 06:00 GMT after the attack, which prompted authorities to divert some flights to the smaller Al Maktoum international airport.
