According to the post by Hungary's Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Peter Szijjarto, the latest wave of Iranian attacks mean that airspace and airports remain closed in both the United Arab Emirates and Qatar for the time being. As previously reported, Tehran launched hundreds of ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones against the United Arab Emirates.
