Falling debris from an intercepted ballistic missile killed two people in Abu Dhabi, the city’s authorities said on Thursday.
The debris had fallen on Sweihan Street, a major thoroughfare on the city’s east side, according to the Abu Dhabi government’s media office. Besides the two deaths – of people only described as “unidentified individuals” – the incident also caused three injuries and damaged a number of cars.
The United Arab Emirates has come under retaliatory Iranian strikes since the war began more than three weeks ago. Authorities reported interceptions of Iranian missiles and drones from early Thursday morning, with CNN staff in Abu Dhabi hearing loud booms overnight.
