TLDR

  • Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps denied launching missile and drone attacks against the UAE.
  • A spokesperson stated that if such an operation occurred, Iran would announce it, dismissing the UAE's Defense Ministry report as baseless.
  • Iran warned the UAE against hosting U.S. and Israeli forces, threatening a severe response if Iranian territories are targeted from the UAE.

From the heart of the Islamic Republic, we issue a firm denial regarding any alleged missile or drone operations against the United Arab Emirates. The statement from the Hatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters of the IRGC clarifies unequivocally: Iran's armed forces have not conducted any such attacks. Should an operation of this nature take place, it would be declared with absolute clarity and certainty. Therefore, the UAE's Defense Ministry report is entirely baseless and devoid of truth.

İran Silahlı Kuvvetleri, son günlerde BAE’ye karşı herhangi bir füze ve insansız hava aracı (İHA) operasyonu gerçekleştirmemiştir ve eğer böyle bir eylem yapılmış olsaydı, bunu kesinlik ve açıklıkla ilan ederdik. Bu nedenle söz konusu ülkenin Savunma Bakanlığı raporu kesin olarak yalanlanmakta ve hiçbir doğruluk payı taşımamaktadır

— İbrahim ZülfikariSpokesperson for the Hatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters of the IRGC, denying attacks against the UAE.

We extend a critical message to the UAE leadership. As a land of Islam, it is imperative that your nation does not host the military forces and assets of the United States and Israel. Such actions constitute a betrayal of the Islamic world. Instead of falling into the traps set by the Americans and Zionists, and instead of engaging in unjust media attacks, baseless accusations, and perception operations against the Muslim people of Iran, you should reconsider your alliances.

Ülkeniz, bir İslam toprağı olarak ABD ve İsrail’in askeri güç ve unsurlarına ev sahipliği yapmamalı ve İslam dünyasına ihanet etmemelidir. ABD’liler ve Siyonistlerin tuzaklarına düşmemeli, onlarla mücadele etmek yerine, Müslüman İran halkına karşı haksız medya saldırıları ve asılsız suçlamalar ve algı operasyonları yürütmemelisiniz

— İbrahim ZülfikariCalling on the UAE administration to cease hosting U.S. and Israeli forces.

It is with deep regret that we observe the UAE transforming into a primary base for the enemies of the Islamic world and the main architects of insecurity in the region – the U.S. and Zionist forces. This nation now hosts a significant number of their military personnel and equipment. Creating narratives, making accusations, and playing the victim will not resolve issues, nor can the international environment be manipulated in this manner.

Üzüntüyle ifade etmek gerekir ki, bugün BAE, İslam dünyasının düşmanları ve bölgede güvensizliğin başlıca sorumluları olan ABD ve Siyonist güçlerin ana üslerinden birine dönüşmüş, bu güçlerin önemli bir kısmının askeri personel ve teçhizatına ev sahipliği yapar hale gelmiştir. Algı oluşturma, suçlama ve mağduriyet söylemleriyle sorunlar çözülemez ve uluslararası ortam bu şekilde manipüle edilemez

— İbrahim ZülfikariDescribing the UAE as a base for U.S. and Zionist forces.

While we have remained silent regarding your propaganda activities and support for the enemies of the Islamic Ummah until now, this restraint has been solely to ensure the safety and peace of our Muslim brethren residing in the UAE. However, we issue this stern warning: If any action is taken against Iranian islands, ports, or coasts from UAE territory, a severe and regrettable response will be delivered.

Eğer BAE topraklarından İran’a ait adalara, limanlara ve kıyılara yönelik herhangi bir eylem gerçekleştirilirse, sert ve pişman edici bir karşılık verilecektir

— İbrahim ZülfikariIssuing a warning of a severe response if Iranian territories are targeted from the UAE.
