The United Arab Emirates’ Ministry of Defense reported intercepting 20 ballistic missiles and 37 drones launched by Iran in the latest attack on Saturday. According to the ministry, all incoming projectiles were successfully neutralized. The report, carried by Al Jazeera, marks another episode in the continuing hostilities involving Iran, the United States, and Israel.

Data from the UAE authorities show that since the start of the Iran–US–Israel conflict, the Gulf nation has faced a total of 398 ballistic missiles, 15 cruise missiles, and 1,872 drones. These attacks have resulted in the deaths of two military personnel, one Moroccan defense contractor, and eight civilians from Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Palestine, and India. At least 178 people have been injured so far.

The latest interception underscores the UAE’s ongoing vulnerability to regional tensions and the sustained threat posed by cross-border missile and drone attacks.
