According to state news agency WAM, the leaders described the attacks as violations of UAE sovereignty and threats to national stability, expressing solidarity with the country amid heightened regional tensions linked to the Iran conflict.

Among those who spoke with Sheikh Mohamed were Jordan’s King Abdullah II, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Masrour Barzani, prime minister of Iraq’s Kurdistan Region.The leaders affirmed their backing for the UAE’s efforts to safeguard its security and ensure the protection of civilians, underscoring a coordinated regional response to the escalation.

The calls come as geopolitical tensions continue to rise across the Middle East, with recent incidents involving Iranian-linked actions drawing strong reactions from regional governments.

“The U.S. military hasn’t even started destroying what’s left in Iran. Bridges next, then Electric Power Plants,” Trump wrote on social media, urging Iran’s leadership to act quickly in response to Washington’s demands.

In a televised address a day earlier, Trump said military operations could intensify over the coming weeks if Tehran did not comply, with possible strikes extending to energy and oil facilities. However, he did not provide a clear timeline for the end of the conflict.

The war, which began on February 28 with coordinated U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran, has since expanded, with Tehran launching retaliatory strikes on Israel and Gulf states hosting U.S. military bases. The conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and widespread displacement, while also driving up global oil prices and increasing volatility in financial markets.

Iranian media, including Fars News Agency, reported that regional infrastructure, including major bridges in neighboring countries, could also face risks following recent strikes.

The latest remarks have drawn scrutiny from legal experts. Dozens of international law specialists in the United States signed an open letter warning that attacks on infrastructure essential for civilian life could violate the Geneva Conventions, which prohibit targeting civilian objects and require distinction between military and non-military assets during armed conflict.

Trump’s statements add to uncertainty surrounding U.S. strategy in the conflict, with shifting objectives and timelines contributing to concerns among analysts about the scope and duration of military operations.
