The United Arab Emirates has assured its residents that the recent U.S. strikes on nuclear sites in Iran have not affected the country, according to an official statement from its nuclear authority.
In a public update on Sunday, the Federal Authority for Nuclear Regulation (FANR) confirmed that there were no repercussions from the incident and emphasized that national entities are actively monitoring developments. FANR also stressed that it remains in close coordination with international bodies, including the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and receives regular updates through official communication channels.
“The authority urges the public to rely on official sources of information and refrain from spreading unverified news or rumors,” FANR added.
This follows a strong call from the UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs for an immediate de-escalation in the region. The ministry warned that continued military actions could plunge the Middle East into “new levels of instability.”
Similarly, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Kuwait reported no signs of radioactive contamination following the airstrikes. The Gulf Cooperation Council also confirmed that radiation levels across the region remain within normal and safe ranges, based on ongoing surveillance.
Authorities across the GCC pledged to continue monitoring the situation using early warning systems and to publish relevant updates as soon as new data becomes available.
