Dubai Airport was briefly closed by a suspected drone sighting Friday.

The Associated Press said the airport halted flights from 10:13 a.m. to 10:45 a.m. on Friday over “suspected drone activity.”

Flights were later resumed.

The AP said alleged drone sightings have previously disrupted flights into the airport and the UAE is among a number of countries now requiring owners to register.
