Israel sent Iron Dome system, IDF team to UAE during recent Iran war
Israel sent an Iron Dome system and dozens of IDF troops to the United Arab Emirates during the recent war with Iran, according to foreign sources.
Multiple Israeli officials have stated that the decision to send the Iron Dome battery and interceptors was made after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by phone with UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed.
Dozens of Iranian missiles fired towards the Gulf state were intercepted by the system, according to foreign sources.
This is the first instance of the Iron Dome being used operationally outside the United States or Israel, though Singapore has reportedly purchased and received Iron Dome, and Romania is expected to do so as well.
