UAE rejects inaccurate Bloomberg report

WAM

The UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has rejected false and misleading claims by Bloomberg regarding the country’s defence capabilities.

The ministry said the report misrepresents the UAE’s preparedness, technological sophistication and operational readiness.

It stressed the importance of responsible journalism and verifying information with official sources.

The UAE possesses advanced, multi-layered air defence systems — long, medium and short-range — capable of countering all types of aerial threats and protecting the nation’s airspace.

The ministry added that the country maintains a robust strategic stockpile of munitions to ensure sustained interception and response, while preserving full operational readiness to safeguard national security and sovereignty.

It reaffirmed that the UAE’s defence capabilities and integrated national security framework remain steadfast and uncompromised.
