Regional tension live on air: Iranian host fires at UAE flag

An unusual event took place on state television in Iran, when a program host fired at the United Arab Emirates flag during a segment intended to demonstrate weapons handling training. The video caused a stir and attracted many views on social media.

According to a report by the Backyard channel, the host fired at the flag while images of Dubai burning were projected in the background. This is a sharp visual step that indicates an escalation in Tehran's psychological warfare.

At the same time, Carmel News, a channel presenting a line identified with pro-Israeli and pro-Western positions, noted that the shooting took place during a program on shooting training and emphasized that it is a tangible expression of the growing tension between Tehran and Abu Dhabi.

As of now, no official response has been issued by the United Arab Emirates regarding the blatant show of force on the Iranian television broadcast.
