UAE Intercepts Two Ballistic Missiles Over Abu Dhabi

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) – The United Arab Emirates has intercepted two ballistic missiles targeting Abu Dhabi. The state-run WAM news agency said missile fragments fell harmlessly over the Emirati capital. Videos posted to social media show the sky light up before dawn, with points of light looking like interceptor missiles. The missile fire disrupted traffic into the airport for about an hour after the attack. A spokesman for Yemen’s Houthi rebel militia later said they had launched attacks targeting both the Emirates and Saudi Arabia, without elaborating. Monday’s attack came a week after Yemen’s Houthi rebels claimed an attack on the Emirati capital that killed three people.
