The UAE announced an indefinite trade and financial embargo on Iran on Wednesday, citing the launch of two ballistic missiles by Iranian forces at the country.
The move follows a series of regional escalations, including alleged attacks on two ADNOC vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and over 530 missile strikes since the conflict began.
As Iran's most important trading partner, the UAE's decision to halt all commercial exchanges is expected to significantly impact Tehran's ability to bypass international sanctions.
