Israeli reports revealed a "secret" meeting that brought together Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Emirati President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, during the period of executing Operation "Roaring Lion" against Iran. The reports stated that Netanyahu's office officially announced the meeting following a secret visit he made to the UAE, noting that the visit led to "historic progress" in relations between the two countries and opened broad horizons for cooperation in multiple fields. These developments come amid a highly complex regional phase, with the continuation of the war between Israel and Iran and the accompanying military escalation involving mutual attacks and intelligence operations in several countries. The visit comes within the context of growing relations between Tel Aviv and Abu Dhabi since the signing of normalization agreements in 2020, which witnessed expansion in security, investment, and energy fields. This meeting is viewed, amid intensifying regional conflict, as a step to enhance political and security coordination between the two sides in facing ongoing developments.
