The UAE has joined Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait and the US in strongly condemning Iran's attacks on several Arab countries, calling it "indiscriminate and reckless".
The attacks on the UAE, Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, including the Kurdistan Region of Iraq are "unjustified" and represent a dangerous escalation that threatens regional stability that targets sovereign territory.
The nations added that targeting civilians and countries that aren't engaged in hostilities is "reckless and destabilising behaviour".
"We stand united in defence of our citizens, sovereignty, and territory, and reaffirm our right to self-defence in the face of these attacks," the statement said. "We remain committed to regional security and commend the effective air and missile defence cooperation that has prevented far greater loss of life and destruction."
