ABU DHABI TRIES TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH ISRAEL BUT THEN THIS HAPPENS - Abu Dhabi shoots down MISSILE fired at the emirate during visit by Israeli president

  Abu Dhabi shoots down MISSILE fired at the emirate during visit by Israeli president a week after Yemeni rebels launched deadly drone attacks

Abu Dhabi's air defence system intercepted the ballistic missile on Sunday

  • The missile had been reportedly fired by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels
  • Emirati Defense Ministry said the attack did not cause any injuries or damage
  • Abu Dhabi today shot down a ballistic missile reportedly fired by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, as the Israeli President conducted an official visit to the United Arab Emirates.

    The capital city's air defence systems intercepted the missile which had been fired at the emirate on Sunday.

    The Emirati Defense Ministry told the Jerusalem Post that the attack did not cause any injuries or damage as the fragments of the missile fell in an unpopulated area.

  • The missile launch came just a week after the Houthi rebels launched a deadly strike on Abu Dhabi on January 17, killing three people and wounding six. 

    The UAE has been at war in Yemen since early 2015, and was a key member of the Saudi-led coalition that launched attacks against the Iranian-backed Houthis after the group overran the capital of Yemen and ousted the internationally backed government from power.
