Media: UAE considering possibility of military action against Iran

The UAE is considering a military response to Iran's strikes on targets within the country.

This is reported by Axios.

"The UAE is considering active defensive measures against Iran," a source familiar with the situation told the outlet. According to the source, approximately 800 munitions were used to strike targets located on UAE territory.

Israel believes that another country in the region — Saudi Arabia — may also respond to Iran's strikes.

Earlier, Reuters, citing experts, reported that the hostilities could strip Dubai of its privileges as a financial center. And the longer the conflict continues, the higher the risks.
