Iran on Saturday threatened to launch an attack against the United Arab Emirates (UAE) over its agreement to normalise relations with Israel, Arab News reported.
“The UAE’s great betrayal of the Palestinian people … will turn this small, rich country, which is heavily dependent on security, into a legitimate and easy target,” said the Iranian hard-line daily Kayhan, whose editor in chief is appointed by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani condemned the deal, saying the agreement between the two countries is a “betrayal of the Palestinian cause” and the UAE had made a “huge mistake”.
