The United Arab Emirates stated that its air defense forces are responding to a missile threat from Iran. Residents were urged to stay in safe places and follow the instructions of the authorities. This was reported by CNN, according to UNN.
The UAE Ministry of Interior reported that air defense systems are "currently operating in response to a missile threat" from Iran. The scale of the attack remains unknown at this time.
The incident occurred the day after Iran carried out a missile and drone attack on UAE territory for the first time since the truce began in early April.
In addition, the country's authorities have already restricted air traffic following previous Iranian strikes. Specifically, flights are only permitted on a limited number of approved routes. These measures were introduced prior to the new attacks and will remain in effect until at least May 11.
