The United Arab Emirates intercepted and destroyed two Houthi ballistic missiles targeting the Gulf country on Monday with no casualties, its defense ministry said, following a deadly attack a week earlier.

The Houthi military spokesman on Monday said the group fired Zulfiqar ballistic missiles at al-Dhafra air base in Abu Dhabi, which is used by the United States, alongside other"sensitive targets."

The Houthi military spokesman on Monday said the group fired Zulfiqar ballistic missiles at al-Dhafra air base in Abu Dhabi, which is used by the United States, alongside other "sensitive targets." The group launched drones at Dubai, he added. The UAE defense ministry said remnants of the intercepted missiles fell in separate areas around Abu Dhabi and that it was taking necessary protective measures against attacks.

Monday's attack was the second on UAE soil since last week's strike that hit a fuel depot in Abu Dhabi, killing three people, and causing a fire near its international airport. Saudi state media earlier said the coalition intercepted a missile, with remnants causing damage in a southern industrial area. State media ran images claiming to show winged remains of the projectiles and of the twisted metal of cars and buildings.
