The Ministry of Defense of the United Arab Emirates has denied reports of a missile attack on the Al-Minhad Air Force base, where American troops are stationed, among others.
“Our armed forces are on high alert to protect national sovereignty, stability and security,” the statement said.
Earlier, the Iranian command reported an attack on the base, noting that the target of the attack was American troops and helicopters.
The UAE Foreign Ministry said a UAV was intercepted over its territorial waters and condemned the Iranian attacks, which threaten residents and freedom of navigation.
