Iran warns US against sending troops, UAE rejects Iranian accusations

Iran's deputy foreign minister warned the United States that sending troops into the conflict would be a 'reckless' move and could lead to a situation like the Vietnam War. The official said such an intervention would face significant resistance.

Separately, a minister from the United Arab Emirates rejected what he called 'misleading claims' from an Iranian official, denying accusations of aggression. The UAE minister also stated that Iran should not be allowed to 'hold the global economy hostage' during the conflict.
