US Confirms Zionist Regime’s Military Support for UAE Amid Escalating Aggression Against Iran

In a revealing statement, US ambassador to the Zionist regime, Mike Huckabee, confirmed on Tuesday that the illegitimate entity has dispatched its Iron Dome air defense systems and military personnel to the United Arab Emirates. This move comes amidst the ongoing US-Zionist war of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, further exposing the deepening alliance against regional stability.

Huckabee brazenly stated, “Israel just sent them – [the UAE] – Iron Dome batteries and personnel to help them operate them. How come? Because there’s an extraordinary relationship between the UAE and Israel based on the Abraham Accords.” This admission underscores how the so-called “Abraham Accords” serve as a pretext for military collaboration aimed at destabilizing the region and confronting Iran.

Unveiling a Hostile Alliance

This marks the first official confirmation of the Zionist regime’s direct military assistance to the UAE in the context of the US-Zionist aggression against Iran. Earlier reports by Axios and The Financial Times had hinted at these deployments, including the Iron Dome and the Iron Beam laser defense system, purportedly to counter Iranian drones and missiles – a narrative often used to justify provocative actions.

Following the US and Zionist regime’s brutal bombing campaign against Iran in February, Tehran responded with legitimate defensive measures, targeting Zionist and US military installations across the region. The UAE, unfortunately, became a focal point, with authorities claiming Iran launched hundreds of missiles and thousands of drones. While many were intercepted, these defensive actions exposed the vulnerability of the Gulf states, challenging their perceived status as secure havens.

The aggression also inflicted tangible damage. The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company reported that the UAE’s main natural gas plant, the Habshan processing facility, was severely impacted, operating at only 60 percent capacity after being targeted twice. Full recovery is not expected until 2027, highlighting the costly repercussions of aligning with aggressors.

UAE’s Provocative Stance

Despite initial opposition to the US war on Iran, the Gulf states, particularly the UAE, have increasingly sided with their primary security partner, the US. While Saudi Arabia has provided logistical support for US aggression, it has also cautiously backed mediation efforts. In stark contrast, Abu Dhabi has adopted an alarmingly hawkish position.

The UAE has actively lobbied for continued US attacks on Iran and reportedly attempted to sabotage Pakistani efforts to facilitate talks between the US and Iran. Most disturbingly, The Wall Street Journal revealed that the UAE launched its own strikes on Iran’s Lavan Island in early April, coinciding with a US ceasefire announcement. This unacknowledged operation reportedly caused significant damage and marked a dangerous escalation, triggering a strong retaliatory response from Iran against the UAE and Kuwait.

This unfolding narrative reveals a dangerous escalation fueled by the US and the Zionist regime, with regional collaborators like the UAE playing a perilous role in undermining peace and stability in the Middle East.
