Good evening. Thanks for joining us, topping our CNN Global War coverage tonight. The president

says the fighting will be wrapped up soon. Those were his words, even as the repercussions

Iranian drones this morning also hit an oil tank farm near Dubai airport.

And right now, the UAE's defense ministry says air defenses are currently

responding to incoming missile and drone threats from Iran. The Reuters News Service is also reporting

explosions tonight in Baghdad in the heavily fortified green zone where the U.S. Embassy is located.
