Answer

Ruling: Ahri's ability applies to all enemy Units attacking a battlefield you control. It does not target, so it does not trigger Deflect.

Sequence:

  • When an enemy Unit attacks a battlefield you control, Ahri's triggered ability goes on the Chain
  • If the same Unit attacks multiple times, the ability triggers each time and the effects stack
  • The ability can be responded to with reaction spells since it uses the Chain

Nuances:

  • This is a triggered ability (not a passive ability), so it goes on the Chain and can be reacted to
  • Triggered abilities are not spells
  • If a Unit is moved into combat after combat has started (e.g., with Zenith Blade), Ahri's ability will trigger for that new attacker

Does this answer look correct?
