Tension increased between US-Iran
Tension between America and Iran seems to be increasing once again. Breaking the ceasefire, Iran attacked the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with drones and missiles on Monday (May 4). This is considered to be Iran’s first major military action after the ceasefire announcement on April 8. UAE officials confirmed the air threat and said that emergency alerts were issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Defense and the air defense system was activated.
India has demanded to stop these war-like situations immediately. In the statement issued by MEA, it was said that targeting innocent civilians and residential areas is wrong. India believes that the solution to this problem can be found only through dialogue and diplomacy, so that peace can be established again in West Asia.
A fire broke out in the Fujairah Petroleum Industries Zone on Monday (May 4) after a drone attack by Iran, in which three Indian citizens were injured.
