According to IRGC claims, there were 21 citizens of Ukraine at the warehouse.
However, this information was denied in Kyiv. Georgiy Tikhiy, a representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, called this information a "lie" and accused Iran of spreading disinformation.
Furthermore, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukrainian specialists have been in the United Arab Emirates for several weeks, interacting with local security and defense forces to enhance protection against aerial threats.
Against this backdrop, statements were made in Iran about the possible expansion of targets in the conflict. In particular, Ibrahim Azizi, head of the National Security Committee of the Iranian Parliament, mentioned that the territory of Ukraine could be considered a "legitimate target" due to its alleged support for Israel.
