In a message on Tuesday, the ministry noted Abu Dhabi's allowing its soil to be amply used for attacks targeting the Islamic Republic throughout the latest round of the United States' and the Israeli regime's unprovoked aggression against the country.
It cautioned the Emirates against continuing its "destructive actions in collusion with the hostile parties."
Besides contributing to aggression against the Islamic Republic, the UAE's continued hosting of the adversaries' bases and equipment "carries dangerous consequences for regional peace and stability," the message read.
The ministry additionally denounced Emirati rulers for accusing Iran of targeting the Arab country, underlining that the Islamic Republic's retaliatory measures are solely aimed at hostile targets inside the Emirates.
It condemned the accusations as baseless, in alignment with the United States, and in violation of the fundamental principles of the United Nations Charter.
In the face of the accusations, the message went on, "the Islamic Republic has exercised maximum restraint, adopting a responsible approach and out of respect for the collective good of the region and the Muslim community."
However, the ministry concluded, the Islamic Republic "will not hesitate to take any necessary and appropriate measures to defend its national interests and security."
The UAE and a whole host of other regional states, including Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Jordan, would invariably allow their respective territories to serve as launch pads for attacks on the Iranian soil throughout the unprovoked aggression that lasted from February 28 until April 7.
Iran responded by launching at least 100 waves of decisive and successful retaliation against sensitive and strategic American and Israeli targets throughout the region.
The reprisal took aim, among other things, against the American facilities inside these countries that would play an instrumental role in enabling the aggression.
