UAE says Israeli annexation of occupied West Bank a 'red line'

The United Arab Emirates has declared that any Israeli move to annex parts of the occupied West Bank would be considered a 'red line.' This warning is significant because the UAE is one of the few Arab states that has maintained relations with Israel despite the conflict in Gaza. A UAE foreign ministry official stated that annexation would severely undermine the vision and spirit of the Abraham Accords, which established diplomatic relations between the countries in 2020.
