Les Emirats arabes unis dénoncent une "escalade dangereuse" après une attaque iranienne
The United Arab Emirates claimed on Monday to have intercepted an Iranian drone over their territorial waters, denouncing a "dangerous escalation" after weeks of relative calm.
This is the first attack targeting this Gulf country since May, with the last attacks reported by Emirati authorities having targeted maritime traffic.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs "strongly condemned the hostile attack carried out by Iran against the country using a drone which was intercepted by air defense systems over territorial waters".
"This is a dangerous escalation," to which the Emirates reserve the right to respond, he added.
The Ministry of Defense had announced earlier that it had "reacted" to an Iranian drone detected over its territorial waters, after Tehran said it had targeted an Emirati base used by the United States.
Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guards said they had "targeted areas where US helicopters and troops are stationed at Al Minhad base in the United Arab Emirates, with dozens of drones."
