Iran Claims Destruction of Ukrainian Drone Depot in Dubai; Kyiv Refutes Allegations
Iran's Revolutionary Guards claimed on March 28, 2026, to have destroyed a Ukrainian anti-drone or air-defense warehouse in Dubai, alleging the facility was linked to U.S. military operations. The claim surfaced just as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in the United Arab Emirates as part of a regional tour. Ukraine's Foreign Ministry officially refuted the report, labeling it as disinformation. The incident underscores the broadening of regional tensions into the Gulf, with Iran targeting international interests.
