An Indian national sustained minor injuries in Abu Dhabi after debris from an intercepted ballistic missile fell in the Al Shawamekh area. Authorities confirmed air defence systems successfully neutralised the threat. The incident comes amid escalating missile and drone attacks across Gulf nations as the conflict enters its fourth week. Dozens of Indians have been injured across the region, while six have died so far, including casualties in Saudi Arabia and Oman. The UAE has intercepted hundreds of aerial threats since the conflict began. With nearly 10 million Indians in West Asia, India and UAE officials have reiterated that expatriate safety remains a top priority. (PC: AFP)
