UAE Refuses to Grant Access to Airspace or Territory for Strikes Against Iran

She stated that the UAE remains committed to regional stability and will not authorize its geography to be used for military aggression or provide any logistical support for such actions.

Al Hameli emphasized that Abu Dhabi views dialogue, de-escalation, and adherence to international law as the only viable paths to resolving regional tensions. Meanwhile, Russia has also warned that any potential U.S. strike on Iran would lead to severe regional instability. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Monday that such a move would be a "disastrous step" toward further destabilizing the Middle East.

Moscow urged all involved parties to exercise maximum restraint and focus on peaceful negotiations. These statements come amidst reports from Israeli media suggesting that U.S. preparations for a potential strike on Iran are already complete, prompting the UAE to clarify its non-aligned position to avoid being drawn into a wider conflict.
