The four-day conflict in the Middle East escalated as Iranian missile and drone attacks threatened Gulf nations.
U.S. embassies and diplomatic missions are increasingly coming under fire in response to the American and Israeli military offensive.
A drone struck the parking lot of the U.S. consulate in Dubai, according to a U.S. official and Dubai's government media office.
The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, came under attack twice on Tuesday, causing part of the roof to collapse, according to people familiar with the matter.
