The Iranian Military Command: The UAE is waiting for a crushing response in case of provocations.

Iran will give a "crushing response" if any actions are taken against the Islamic Republic from the territory of the United Arab Emirates (UAE). This was stated on May 5 by the representative of the central headquarters of the Iranian military command "Khatam al-Anbiya" Ebrahim Zolfagari.

"If actions are taken from the territory of the UAE against Iran, we will give a crushing response," Tasnim news agency quoted him as saying.

Zolfagari said that the UAE, according to the Iranian side, has become one of the main bases of the United States and Israel in the region. He called them "enemies of the Islamic world" and accused them of creating security threats.

Moment of breakdown: attack on the UAE endangers the Middle East truce

Iran denies accusations of a strike, Washington increases pressure

In the city of Fujairah, UAE, on May 4, a fire broke out at an oil industrial facility (NGO). According to the city authorities, the fire occurred as a result of a drone attack from Iran. The UAE Defense Ministry added that three missiles were intercepted over the country's airspace. Another shell flew into the sea.

The UAE government, in turn, strongly condemned the attacks by Iran on civilian targets in the country and reserved the right to respond to them.
