Herzog meets bin Zayed in Abu Dhabi.
Israeli media reported that the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan met, on Sunday, with the Israeli occupation’s President Isaac Herzog.
During talks that lasted over two hours, Herzog discussed the recent aerial attacks on Abu Dhabi by the Yemeni Armed Forces in response to ongoing Saudi-UAE massacres in Yemen.

Herzog told the Crown Prince, according to his office, “I wish to emphasize that we completely support your security requirements and we condemn in all forms and language any attack on your sovereignty."
On his account, bin Zayed said the normalization agreements paved the way for the UAE in several areas most notably technology, modernity, and health.
Herzog arrived in Abu Dhabi on Sunday as part of a presidential visit to the UAE where he was received by the Minister of International Cooperation, Abdullah bin Zayed.
Media reports highlighted that "the plane crossed Saudi airspace before arriving in the UAE."

The Israeli Maariv newspaper said, on Saturday, that the Emiratis "want to receive more than moral support," and talked about "the Israeli role in supporting the UAE in light of the United States' abandonment of it and its insistence on reaching an agreement with Iran after it gave up many of its conditions during the Vienna talks."
It is worth noting that Yemen's Armed Forces have recently issued a new warning to the Emirates that they will target more locations in retaliation to the targeting of Yemeni civilians, including the Dubai Expo.
"Israel" grew very concerned following a tweet by Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree, knowing that the timing of the tweet whereby he threatened the Dubai Expo raised talks in Israeli media, which said that the threat coincided with Herzog's visit.
