[WSJ: Gulf Nations May Strike Iran's Missile Launch Sites] BlockBeats News, March 2, according to WSJ, regional officials stated that Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and other Gulf nations are unlikely to tolerate Iran's attacks for long. One possible option is to begin targeting missile and drone launch sites within Iran. UAE diplomatic advisor Gargash stated: 'We should not adopt a passive defense strategy but rather take a more proactive approach to defense. We must examine the types of conflicts that are emerging. At the same time, we possess certain capabilities ourselves, and our philosophy is that countermeasures should match the severity of the conflict.' On Sunday, the UAE closed its embassy in Tehran and withdrew its diplomats from Iran.
