Iran revokes residency permits for UAE citizens in a tit-for-tat

Iran’s judiciary said Monday it began revoking residency permits for UAE citizens in retaliation for the UAE doing the same to Iranians there.

The judiciary said 1,200 Emiratis living in Iran had their residencies revoked.

The United Arab Emirates did not immediately respond to a request for comment about its residency revocations. The government has shut down the Iranian Hospital and the Iranian Club in Dubai. Iran has fired more drones and missiles combined at the UAE than at Israel during the war.
