UAE says any attack on a Gulf state is an attack on the Gulf 'joined security system'

The United Arab Emirates condemned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “hostile remarks” against Qatar on Thursday, warning that any attack on a Gulf state would be considered an attack on the region’s “joined security system.” 

The statement came from Afra Al Hameli, a UAE foreign ministry spokesperson, following Netanyahu’s warning that Qatar must expel Hamas officials or “bring them to justice.”
