The United Arab Emirates has revealed the full scale of Iran’s retaliatory missile and drone campaign, disclosing that 186 ballistic missiles and more than 800 drones were launched toward the country since late February. According to the UAE Ministry of Defence, 172 ballistic missiles were intercepted, 13 fell into the sea, and one landed on Emirati soil. Officials also confirmed that 812 Iranian drones were detected, with 755 successfully shot down. Eight cruise missiles were also destroyed during the barrage.
The attacks resulted in three deaths and 68 minor injuries, with most damage caused by falling debris and interception blasts across parts of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The strikes were part of Iran’s broader regional retaliation targeting Gulf states hosting US military bases. The UAE has condemned the attacks as violations of sovereignty while emphasizing the effectiveness of its advanced air defense systems. As tensions escalate across West Asia, concerns are growing over a wider regional conflict.
