The United Arab Emirates said on Monday it intercepted a ballistic missile fired by Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement as the UAE hosted Israeli President Isaac Herzog in his first official visit to the Gulf business and tourism hub.

Nevertheless, Washington has condemned the assault.

The attack is the third on U.S.-allied UAE in the last two weeks, including a deadly hit on Abu Dhabi on January 17th 2022.

They mark an escalation of the Yemen war between the Houthis and a Saudi-led coalition, which includes the UAE.
