UAE Denies Iran's Claims of US Strikes on Kharg Island from Emirati Territory

The United Arab Emirates has denied Iran's accusations that US forces used Emirati territory to launch artillery strikes on Iran's Kharg Island. UAE officials, including presidential adviser Anwar Gargash, called the claims baseless and described Iran's statements as part of a confused policy. While condemning Iran's attacks on the UAE, the UAE emphasized its restraint and efforts to mediate between Washington and Tehran to prevent further escalation in the Gulf region. Iran alleged strikes originated from locations in the UAE, but no attacks on major UAE ports were reported.
