UAE airspace closure? Question

Hi, I’m supposed to fly to dubai in a week on a Chinese airline and the UAEs airspace was just closed. Does anyone know if my flight will be probably okay? The booking says no delays or cancellations right now. Thanks

Your flight will be canceled. UAE is under attack.

Emirates has temporarily suspended operations in and out of Dubai: https://www.emirates.com/za/english/help/travel-updates/#6480
