Algeria closes airspace to UAE after cutting diplomatic ties

Sep 10

Key FactsAlgeria Cuts UAE Ties Over Alleged Interference

Sep 10, 2026 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: dailysabah.com

Algeria announced the severing of diplomatic relations Thursday after saying all efforts to preserve bilateral ties had been exhausted.

The Foreign Ministry accused the UAE of provocative, hostile acts; it provided no details, and no immediate response was reported.

Algeria gave the UAE ambassador 48 hours to comply with the decision to break diplomatic ties.

Relations were also strained by differing foreign policies, including the UAE’s normalization of ties with Israel in 2020.

Wherever they set foot, blood flows.
— President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, in a televised interview in July, warned that the UAE's involvement has had a very negative impact and urged staying away to prevent bloodshed.

On Thursday, Iran reported attacks on US bases in Kuwait and the UAE; Vance questioned reports of four alleged wedding deaths after a US strike.

On Saturday, the United States said it struck and destroyed three Iranian oil tankers following attempted missile attacks on naval vessels.

CENTCOM said IRGC-linked M/T Downy and M/T Stark 1 were disabled, while M/T Kylo was destroyed.

Washington also announced sanctions on entities with financial links to Iran, seeking to further isolate the country.

If you shoot at two of our ships, we will impose an even higher economic cost – taking out three of yours.
— CENTCOM commander Admiral Brad Cooper said after the strikes.
