Several people in the United Arab Emirates were summoned by the public prosecutors’ office after they posted videos on social media that showed the Emirates’ defense systems intercepting missiles fired on Abu Dhabi on Monday by the Houthis in Yemen. It is not known how many people were called in nor what penalties they will face.

“The Public Prosecution has met with several individuals who circulated a social media video that showed defense forces intercepting Houthi terrorist attacks against critical facilities in the UAE. The Public Prosecution warned that such (video) clips endanger vital and military installations, and can impact the security and stability of society,” the state news agency WAM reported on Wednesday.
