Iran Accuses UAE of Active Partnership in War Amid Reports of Secret Israeli Ties
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi labeled the United Arab Emirates an 'active partner in war' against Iran during the BRICS summit, citing its alleged collusion with Israel. He claimed the UAE allowed its territory to be used for attacks against Iran, a stance echoed by former officials Manouchehr Mottaki and Ali Motahari, who accused Abu Dhabi of providing drones and exhibiting hostility. These accusations follow reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly visited the UAE in March to meet President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a trip described by Israeli officials as a historic breakthrough. Although the UAE denied secret arrangements, insisting relations are public under the Abraham Accords, Israeli aides confirmed the visit. Additionally, The Wall Street Journal reported covert UAE attacks on Iranian oil facilities and secret Mossad visits for war coordination. The delivery of Israel’s Iron Dome system to the UAE has further intensified tensions, leading to strong diplomatic rebukes from Tehran regarding Abu Dhabi's deepening security cooperation with Tel Aviv during the recent conflict.
