The Turkish defence ministry says a second ballistic munition launched from Iran has been destroyed by "Nato air and missile defence assets" after it entered Turkish airspace.

In a statement, the ministry adds that debris fell onto empty land in the southern city of Gaziantep, but there were no injuries or casualties.

Last week, the Turkish defence ministry said an Iranian missile heading towards its airspace was destroyed by Nato defences.

Meanwhile, the UAE Ministry of Defence says it has detected 15 ballistic missiles today, destroying 12, while three fell into the sea.

The ministry also says it detected 18 drones, intercepting 17, with one crashing within UAE territory.

Since the start of Iran's attacks, the ministry says it has detected a total of 253 ballistic missiles, eight cruise missiles and 1,440 drones. Two ballistic missiles and 81 UAVs hit the country - the rest were intercepted or feel in the sea, it says. These attacks have resulted in four deaths and 117 injuries so far, it says.

Earlier, authorities in Abu Dhabi said two people were injured after Iranian strikes were intercepted.
