Iran Condemns UAE as War Partner Amid Reports of Secret Israeli Ties
Tensions between Iran and the United Arab Emirates have escalated significantly following accusations by Iranian officials that Abu Dhabi acted as an active partner in recent conflicts against Tehran. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi labeled the UAE’s alleged collusion with Israel as unforgivable, claiming Emirati territory was used for attacks. Former officials Manouchehr Mottaki and Ali Motahari reinforced these claims, citing drone origins and hostile intentions driven by U.S. support. These statements coincide with reports from Israeli and Western media regarding a secret visit by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the UAE and Mossad chief David Barnea’s trips to coordinate war efforts. While the UAE denied secret arrangements, asserting its relations with Israel are public under the Abraham Accords, Israeli aides confirmed the high-level meetings. Additionally, allegations surfaced that the UAE secretly targeted Iranian oil infrastructure, including Lavan Island and Asaluyeh port. The delivery of Israel’s Iron Dome system to the UAE further intensified Iranian grievances, marking a severe deterioration in regional diplomatic relations and highlighting deepening security cooperation between Tel Aviv and Abu Dhabi amidst ongoing regional warfare.
