A Bangladeshi national has been identified among those killed in a retaliatory Iranian missile strike in the United Arab Emirates. The deceased, Saleh Uddin alias Ahmad Ali, aged 48, was from Gaziteka village under Barlekha municipality in Moulvibazar. His family in Bangladesh confirmed his death on Sunday night, March 1, after receiving information from relatives in the UAE. Saleh was reportedly killed when an Iranian missile hit Ajman city amid escalating regional conflict following U.S.-Israel attacks on Iran.

According to family sources, Saleh had been living in Ajman for many years and worked as a water truck driver. On Saturday evening, while performing his regular duties, a missile struck the area, injuring several people. Saleh was taken to a local hospital where doctors declared him dead. His relatives in Bangladesh had heard unconfirmed reports of his death earlier but received confirmation the following day.

The incident highlights the growing regional tension that has extended its impact to expatriate communities in the Gulf region.
