Report of Iranian strike on Dubai warehouse housing 21 Ukrainians fake
Diana Davityan, spokesperson for Rustem Umerov, Secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, has denied claims of an alleged Iranian strike on a warehouse in Dubai (UAE) containing Ukrainian drones and 21 Ukrainian nationals.
"This information does not correspond to reality. It is fake," Davityan told Interfax-Ukraine on Saturday.
In turn, the spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Heorhiy Tykhy, in response to journalists’ questions, denied information about an alleged attack on a warehouse in Dubai, where 21 Ukrainians were. "This is a lie, we officially deny this information. The Iranian regime often conducts such disinformation operations, and in this it is no different from the Russians," he said.
Earlier, Iran’s Fars news agency reported that Iran had supposedly carried out a strike on a warehouse in Dubai storing Ukrainian drones. According to the Iranian outlet, 21 Ukrainians were allegedly present at the site during the attack.
