Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates have agreed to cooperate on defence amid Iran’s drone strikes across the region, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The news comes as the war in the Middle East escalates, prompting countries in the region – particularly those facing Iranian attacks – to recognise "what Ukraine has to offer in terms of defence technology", FRANCE 24’s Gulliver Cragg said, noting that the newly signed agreement focuses on exporting Kyiv’s “know-how and equipment”. Cragg added that Ukrainian teams would also pilote from a distance interceptor drones flying over the Middle East.
