Israel reportedly deployed its Iron Dome and troops to the United Arab Emirates to counter Iranian missile threats, marking its first such overseas deployment. The move followed talks between Benjamin Netanyahu and Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The UAE has faced heavy attacks, with hundreds of missiles and thousands of drones reportedly launched by Iran since February 28. Israeli forces also conducted strikes on Iranian missile sites. The deployment reflects deepening Israel-UAE cooperation amid escalating conflict, shifting regional dynamics, and ongoing but fragile ceasefire efforts. (PC: AFP)
