Anwar Gargash, diplomatic advisor to the UAE President, on Wednesday called out Iran for targetting "civilian infrastructure and vital facilities" in the country.
In a post on social media platform X, Gargash rejected Iran's claims of "targeting American military bases in the Gulf", saying the "numbers of missiles and drones reveal a different truth".
Gargash said the attacks have been on civilian infrastructure and vital facilities, "without regard for civilians and the innocent".
"We thank God for the efficiency of our national capabilities in repelling these treacherous attacks."
يكذب العدوان الإيراني حين يدّعي استهداف القواعد العسكرية الأميركية في الخليج؛ فأرقام الصواريخ والمسيّرات تكشف حقيقة مختلفة. فالهجمات تطال البنى التحتية المدنية والمنشآت الحيوية دون اعتبار للمدنيين والأبرياء. نحمد الله على كفاءة قدراتنا الوطنية في صد هذه الهجمات الغاشمة.
