The Iranian military announced a strike on the Ukrainian anti-missile depot located in the United Arab Emirates.
It was reported by the portal of the Qatari TV channel Al-Jazeera.
In a statement by the Iranian side, broadcast on state television, the IRGC headquarters Khatam al-Anbia said: "As the hideouts of American commanders and soldiers in Dubai were targeted … a Ukrainian anti-drone system depot that was located in Dubai to assist the US military … was targeted and destroyed."
The allegation comes after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy paid an unannounced visit to the UAE, where he said the two countries had agreed to deepen defense cooperation. The visit was reported in detail by the Ukrainian News agency.
In turn, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine denied Iran's statements about the alleged destruction of a Ukrainian warehouse with anti-drone systems in Dubai. The ministry emphasized that this information is not true. They also emphasized that such reports are part of disinformation.
Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi said this in a comment to the media.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine has responded to Iranian media reports of an alleged strike on a warehouse with Ukrainian anti-drone systems in Dubai. In particular, we are talking about reports spread by the Iranian Fars news agency with reference to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which claimed the possible death of 21 Ukrainians.
MFA spokesman Heorhii Tykhyi denied this information in a comment to Novosti.LIVE and emphasized that it had nothing to do with reality.
"This is a lie, we officially deny this information. The Iranian regime often conducts such disinformation operations - and this is no different from the Russians," Heorhii Tykhyi said.
