New attacks on the United Arab Emirates by Iran

On March 28 this year, Emirates Global Aluminum (EGA) reported significant damage to its factory in Abu Dhabi and injuries to its employees. This was announced in a press release published on the company’s official website.

According to the Emirati authorities, six people were injured when the remains of an intercepted Iranian missile fell on the KEZAD Special Economic Zone. Three fires broke out in the industrial area, but were kept under control.

Iran has ended its friendly policy towards the United Arab Emirates (UAE), due to information obtained by Iranian intelligence indicating the country’s significant role in inciting aggression against Tehran.

EGA is a leader in global aluminum production and is part of the UAE’s commitment to spend $1.4 trillion in the United States over the next decade. The Gulf state is the second-largest supplier of aluminum to the U.S. after Canada and is building its first new U.S. smelter in decades in Oklahoma.

In America, EGA also has a recycling facility in Minnesota, which has allowed it to benefit from domestically produced metals sold at higher prices due to tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump.

At least 11 countries have already been attacked by Iran in response to U.S. and Israeli attacks. The UAE authorities have said they have managed to intercept more than 90 percent of Iranian drones and missiles.
