UAE, Saudi Leaders Break Ice to Discuss Iran Missile Attacks

Leaders of the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia spoke by phone in the wake of Iran’s retaliatory attacks on US bases in the Gulf, as security concerns outweighed a feud between the two regional powerhouses.

The two are on poor terms and UAE-Saudi tensions have soared in recent months, especially over their backing of different groups in war-torn Yemen. The fact they had a call signals the seriousness of the US-Israeli strikes for their economies and security.
