Iran Accuses UAE of War Partnership Amid Netanyahu's Secret Visit Claims
Tensions between Iran and the United Arab Emirates have escalated following accusations by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi that the UAE is an active partner in the war against the Islamic Republic. Araghchi claimed Emirati territory was used for attacks on Iran, a sentiment echoed by former officials Manouchehr Mottaki and Ali Motahari, who alleged UAE involvement in drone strikes and cited growing hostility driven by US support. These statements coincide with reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secretly visited the UAE during recent conflicts to meet President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, aiming for a historic breakthrough in relations. While the UAE denied secret arrangements, insisting ties remain within the Abraham Accords framework, Israeli officials confirmed the visit. Additionally, reports indicate Mossad chief David Barnea made covert trips to Abu Dhabi for war coordination, and media outlets alleged UAE-led attacks on Iranian oil facilities. The delivery of Israel’s Iron Dome system to the UAE further signals expanding security cooperation, prompting strong diplomatic rebukes from Tehran regarding Abu Dhabi’s collusion with Israel.
