Three dead, 58 injured in UAE since start of Iran strikes: Defence ministry

Three people have been killed and 58 others injured in the UAE since Iran began its retaliatory campaign in the Gulf in response to U.S. and Israeli attacks, authorities said.

The UAE has detected 165 ballistic missiles, destroying 152, and intercepted two cruise missiles, its defence ministry said. A total of "541 Iranian drones were detected, 506 of which were intercepted and destroyed," the ministry added in a statement.

The attacks resulted in the deaths of three people of Pakistani, Nepalese, and Bangladeshi nationality, it said.
