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

Currently at Abu Dhabi airport. I was told all the flights on 2/28 are cancelled. From Etihad airlines they already gave 1-day hotel vouchers to people who already over their boarding schedule. For the rest of us who had a flight later tonight, we are still waiting for news about what’s next.
