UAE defense ministry says Iranian barrage targeting country

The UAE's defense ministry and state news agency on Monday said a fresh Iranian barrage had targeted the country following multiple alerts from authorities warning people to take cover.

"Four cruise missiles launched from Iran were detected toward various areas across the country. Three were successfully engaged over the country's territorial waters, while one fell in the sea," the defense ministry said on social media.

State news agency WAM also cited the defense ministry as saying its forces were working to repel missile and drone attacks coming from Iran.
