UAE officials warned that in response to missile and drone attacks, they could freeze Iran's assets within the country's territory. This is reported by zamon.uz.
According to information, Emirati officials have privately warned Tehran about possible financial measures. Among them, measures such as freezing shell company accounts and large-scale inspections of currency exchange networks are being discussed.
One of the main potential targets of sanctions could be financial structures linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Such measures are likely to deal a serious blow to channels related to financing Iran's military programs.
Experts emphasize that if these restrictions are implemented, Iran's access to foreign currency and global trade systems could be sharply limited. This is because the UAE has long served as a key financial center for circumventing Western sanctions.
In particular, it is noted that Tehran has been distributing funds received from oil sales on global markets through Emirati infrastructure, and has also been conducting financial operations outside the official banking system through local currency exchange networks.
