Tehran, Mar 15 (V7N) — Iran has called for the immediate evacuation of port areas in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the United Arab Emirates amid rising tensions in the region.

According to a report by Tasnim News Agency on Saturday (March 14), Ebrahim Zolfaqari, spokesperson for Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, said Iran has planned new attacks targeting enemy missile launch sites located in several cities in the UAE.

Zolfaqari urged the Muslim population in the UAE to evacuate ports, docks, and areas near U.S. military bases to avoid potential casualties and damage.

Addressing the UAE leadership, he stated that Iran considers such attacks a “legitimate right” to defend its national sovereignty and territory. He also claimed that Iranian strikes have already targeted U.S. installations located in several cities in the UAE.

According to the Iranian official, U.S. forces stationed in UAE ports and docks launched missile attacks on Iran’s Abu Musa Island and Kharg Island after American bases in the region were hit.
