ביקור הרמטכ"ל באמירויות, והודעתה על האצת פרויקט המעקף להורמוז

הערכה

A secret visit by Israel's chief of staff to the UAE during wartime, combined with the UAE's denial of a prior visit by the prime minister, reveals a gap between official announcements and on-the-ground diplomacy. The UAE's acceleration of an oil pipeline bypassing a blocked strait signals a strategic shift in regional energy logistics. The tension between public messaging and covert military coordination warrants close observation of how Gulf states balance normalization with operational discretion.
