<think>The user wants me to write a 2-3 sentence running status on UAE based on the last 5 SkimNews stories. Let me analyze:
- Jul 14: Iranian missiles hit UAE tankers in Hormuz, UAE called it "blatant attack" and reserved retaliation right
- Jul 02: BrahMos missile export talks with UAE, Russia weighing induction
- May 14: Iran accuses UAE of direct war involvement at BRICS
- May 12: Israel strike in Lebanon, UAE hit Iran
- May 08: UAE reports missile barrage, US awaits Iran response
