It is regarding 100 km from the attack site to Dubai… There is no special agitation for the tour group
He spared no words to raise the possibility of a possible connection with the cancellation of the summit with the Crown Prince
(Dubai = Yonhap News) Reporter Hyeong-seop Lim, Gyeong-jun Park = Amid reports that Abu Dhabi International Airport and oil facilities, the capital of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), were allegedly attacked by unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) on the 17th (local time), the UAE President Moon Jae-in, who is visiting, is continuing his schedule in Dubai.
Abu Dhabi Police said in a statement on the same day that fires broke out at the crude oil storage facility of Abu Dhabi National Oil Corporation (ADNOC) and a new construction site at Abu Dhabi International Airport.
According to the Associated Press and AFP news agency, Yemeni rebel Houthis (self-proclaimed Ansarullah) attacked the UAE shortly following the fire broke out.
This happened while President Moon was staying in Dubai, but there was no sense of a particularly disturbing atmosphere in the country.
This seems to be because Abu Dhabi International Airport is regarding 100 km away from Dubai, and a visit to Abu Dhabi is not planned during the UAE visit.
In fact, President Moon delivered a keynote speech at the opening ceremony of ‘Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week’ held in Dubai on the same day and a luncheon to encourage officials at the Dubai Expo Korea Pavilion.
Some observers say that the Korea-UAE summit between President Moon and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed al-Nahayan of Abu Dhabi was canceled and that the same security risk as the day’s accident may have played a role, but the Blue House is not talking regarding it.
A key Blue House official met with reporters the day before and said, “The UAE has been politely asking for their understanding.”
