UAE says dismantled Iran-linked group planning attacks
The United Arab Emirates said it has dismantled a group accused of planning attacks and undermining national stability, adding that those arrested were linked to Iran.
State security authorities said the group was involved in covert activities aimed at harming national unity and carried out recruitment through secret meetings.
Investigations showed the group had connections to Iran’s system of governance and maintained contacts with external actors, authorities said.
Officials said members also raised funds and sought to influence young people, with the aim of advancing agendas aligned with foreign interests.
The UAE said it would continue to act firmly against threats to national security.
