According to a report by the Wall Street Journal, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) secretly launched military strikes against Iran during the recent Middle East conflict, marking its emergence as an active combatant. One notable strike targeted a refinery on Lavan Island in the Persian Gulf, resulting in a major fire and significant downtime for the facility. This attack coincided with a ceasefire announcement by US President Donald Trump. In retaliation, Iran launched over 2,800 missiles and drones against the UAE, disrupting various sectors including air traffic and tourism, and prompting layoffs. The UAE has since redefined its strategic stance towards Iran, labeling it a 'rogue actor' and increasing military cooperation with the United States. Amid ongoing tensions, the UAE has established a national committee to document Iranian attacks for future legal proceedings, demanding reparations for the damages caused.
