In latest escalation, Iran has attacked the United Arab Emirates. The Ministry of Defence of UAE has confirmed that its air defense systems intercepted a missile threat targeting the strategic Jebel Ali port. Four cruise missiles—reportedly launched from Iran—were detected entering UAE airspace. Three were successfully intercepted, while one fell into the sea. Residents across the UAE reported loud explosions as interceptors lit up the night sky. No casualties or damage have been confirmed, but authorities say the country remains on high alert amid a rapidly evolving threat environment.

The missile scare coincided with other incidents. In Fujairah, a petroleum industrial site caught fire following a suspected drone strike. Meanwhile, a cargo vessel north of Dubai reported an engine room fire linked to possible launches. The pattern suggests a broader escalation targeting critical infrastructure across the region.
