The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has vowed to retaliate against Houthi rebels.

 The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has issued a warning in response to a drone strike in Abu Dhabi by Houthi militants in Yemen, killing three people.

The Emirate is a partner in the Saudi-led coalition against the Houthi rebels, who are believed to be backed by Iran.

This is the first time that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has been subjected to such a vicious attack, despite repeated attacks by Houthi rebels across the Saudi border.

 However, Houthi rebels have warned of further attacks on other targets in the emirate.

A Houthi spokesman said the attack targeted several important targets, including Abu Dhabi and Dubai airports and an oil refinery in the Mustafa area of ​​Abu Dhabi.
