UAE says it intercepted Iranian missiles for first time since ceasefire began
The United Arab Emirates said Monday it successfully intercepted multiple missiles fired from Iran.
The reported attack is the first time that the UAE has activated its missile alert system since the U.S. and Iran began a testy ceasefire on April 8.
The development, which was not immediately confirmed in Iranian state media, further frays the temporary truce, which was already being strained by new U.S. military in the Strait of Hormuz.
An alert issued to phones in Dubai and Abu Dhabi on Monday evening local time warned people, “Due to the current situation, potential missile threats, immediately seek a safe place in the closest secure building.”
