Westerners have be asked to leave the UAE and also Israel following the assassination of a high profile general Qasem Soleimani following orders from US president Donald Trump early Friday morning and also due to the heightened tension in the region due to the assassination.
On a BBC broadcast, Iranian Professor Seyed Mohammad Marandi, from the University of Tehran who is also a Military analyst, speaking to the BBC said:
“If I was a Western citizen I would leave the United Arab Emirates immediately. “Not only will Iranian leaders retaliate but also Iraqis will retaliate.
“The Americans have murdered Iraqi war heroes, this was a senior Iraqi government official. “The American position in Iraq is no longer sustainable and I think that the whole region is now a threat.”
“The whole region’s future is unclear because of the terrorist attack committed in Iraq. No matter how you frame it, it’s the equivalent of assassinating the British commander of the British armed forces.”
"This is essentially a declaration of war against Iran and they have a pretty wide menu from which to choose [as a form of retaliation]”
