Israel’s National Security Council has warned of increased threats to Israelis in the UAE, citing possible attacks by Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, and other groups. The warning follows heightened tensions linked to Israel’s military actions in Gaza and Iran, according to Al Jazeera.
Though formal ties were established under the 2020 Abraham Accords, the NSC says Israeli and Jewish targets in the UAE may face risk, especially around Jewish holidays. Citizens are urged to avoid non-essential travel.
The alert comes after three people were sentenced to death in the UAE for the murder of an Israeli rabbi in a suspected terror attack, Al Jazeera reported.
