U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mr. Mike Huckabee said on Tuesday (May 12, 2026) that Israel had sent an Iron Dome battery and personnel to operate the air defence system to the United Arab Emirates.
“Israel just sent the UAE Iron Dome batteries and personnel to help operate them. How come? Because there is an extraordinary relationship between the UAE and Israel based on the Abraham Accords,” Mr. Huckabee said at an event in Tel Aviv, referring to the 2020 agreement under which Israel established ties with the UAE.
