Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic advisor to the president of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), revealed that Iran has launched nearly 3,300 missiles and drones at the UAE since the onset of US and Israeli military operations against Tehran on February 28. Despite the severity of these attacks, Gargash noted that only about 4% successfully reached their intended targets in the UAE, thanks to the nation’s robust multi-layered air defense system. The military operations by the US and Israel were triggered by perceived missile and nuclear threats from Iran, leading to strikes on major Iranian cities, including Tehran. In retaliation, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted sites in Israel, and US military bases in Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE were also attacked. The conflict escalated further when Iranian authorities decided to close the Strait of Hormuz to ships associated with the US, Israel, and other nations perceived as aggressors against Tehran, marking a significant development in the ongoing tensions in the region.
