The United Arab Emirates has intercepted and destroyed a ballistic missile making it the third such incident this month

According to authorities, the Incident comes off the back of a recent missile interception made just under a fortnight ago.

The third missile interception comes as the Israeli President visited the country.

“The attack did not cause any losses. The remains of the ballistic missile landed outside residential areas,”

the UAE Ministry of Defense said on Twitter.

There have been a series of attacks on the UAE this month by the Iran-backed Houthi rebels which are based in Yemen

Rebels launched a drone attack on January 17 which killed three foreign workers in the UAE capital of Abu Dhabi.

The Saudi-led coalition fighting the Houthis responded with air strikes on the Yemeni capital that killed at least 12 people.

The Houthis then launched missiles again on January 24, but the UAE intercepted those with support from the United States.

After that attack, a Houthi spokesperson warned the group would “expand their operations over the next phase,” and warned foreign companies to leave the UAE.

There was no immediate danger posed to the President or his entourage.

The visit is expected to continue as planned according to an Israeli presidential spokesman.
