The foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, has warned of “uncalculated and reckless steps” that could spill out beyond the borders of Iran and Israel, according to a statement by the foreign ministry on Tuesday.
UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian discussed in a phone call the Israeli strikes on Iran, the Emirati state news agency WAM reported later in the day.
The Emirati president said the Gulf country is conducting intensive talks with concerned parties to calm the situation, WAM said.
