The UAE has strongly condemned the Iranian drone strike targeting Azerbaijan, considering these hostile acts a dangerous escalation, and violation of state sovereignty.
In a statement, The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) affirmed that the expansion of attacks to additional countries is condemned under all legal and political norms.
The ministry added that the attacks undermine de-escalation efforts and heighten regional tensions.
