Brett Erickson(@BrettErickson28):It’s worth noting that multiple Emirati government planes have flown into Iran, and subsequently departed shortly thereafter. The UAE notoriously paid Iran $3B to be protected from future missile and drone strikes earlier in the war. While there is currently no evidence to support the claim that the UAE is flying more cash to Iran… this is certainly a viable hypothesis for what is taking place.
