United Arab Emirates President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan received calls from regional leaders, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, condemning what they described as Iranian attacks on civilians and civilian facilities in the UAE, the state news agency WAM says.

The leaders “affirmed their countries’ solidarity with the UAE and support for measures it takes to safeguard its security and stability and ensure the safety of its citizens,” WAM adds.

There is no immediate comment on the call from Netanyahu’s office.
