The Abraham Accords facilitated the normalization of Israel's relations with several Arab countries, including the UAE.
The meeting between Israeli leader Netanyahu and UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed has resulted in a 'historic breakthrough' in their relations, according to Netanyahu's office. This development comes amidst heightened regional tensions with Iran, which has been launching missiles and drones at the UAE. The US Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, confirmed that Israel's Iron Dome defense systems were deployed to the UAE during the conflict, citing an 'extraordinary relationship' based on the Abraham Accords.
The UAE's presidential adviser, Anwar Gargash, reiterated the country's commitment to diplomacy but emphasized its right to self-defense. Reuters reported the Netanyahu-Zayed meeting took place in Al-Ain, lasting several hours.
Iran's attacks on the UAE included over 2,800 missiles and drones since late February. The UAE also conducted an unacknowledged strike on an Iranian refinery in April, as reported by the Wall Street Journal. Despite a month-old ceasefire, Iran continues to block the Strait of Hormuz, impacting global oil prices. The US maintains a blockade on Iranian ports, pressing for concessions. Iran's recent ceasefire proposal was deemed 'totally unacceptable' by President Trump, leaving the ceasefire 'on massive life support.'
