Jordan condemned Monday the “terrorist plot that aimed to undermine national unity and stability” in the United Arab Emirates, after the Gulf country’s authorities announced earlier today dismantling an Iran-linked group that it said was plotting attacks in the UAE.

The statement by Jordan’s Foreign Ministry described it as a “rejected attempt to destabilize the UAE’s security and safety,” saying it is in full solidarity with the United Arab Emirates.

Earlier today, authorities in the UAE arrested members of an Iran-linked group that was plotting "terrorist" acts in the country and attempting to recruit Emiratis, state security said Monday.

"The State Security Service announced the dismantling of a terrorist organisation and the arrest of its members," adding they were "planning systematic terrorist and sabotage operations" in the UAE.

"Investigations revealed the organisation's ties to the Velayat-e Faqih (Guardianship of the Jurist) in Iran," it added. It also shared mugshots of 27 men and their names.
