Mohsen Rezaei, secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, has warned the United Arab Emirates against hosting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, referring to him as the "Gaza butcher."
According to Iran's Mehr News Agency, Rezaei said that doing so would not have positive consequences for the UAE, though he did not specify what response, if any, Iran might take.
The comments reflect Tehran's continued hostility toward Israel and its allies in the region amid the ongoing war in Gaza, and follow a pattern of Iranian officials publicly criticizing Gulf states that engage diplomatically with Israel.
