Gulf Nation Under Fire Amid Shift In Transparency On Defense Success

The United Arab Emirates is facing a disproportionate number of attacks from Iran, with over 1,500 drones and 283 missiles targeting the country. The UAE’s air defenses, which include the THAAD and Patriot systems, have been successful in intercepting many of these threats, but the country has recently changed its approach to sharing information on its defense successes. According to experts, this shift may be due to concerns about operational security, and the high number of attacks on the UAE may be a result of Iran’s perception of the country as a strategic target.
