UAE stocks fall amid travel warnings
The UAE stock markets declined after a warning from the Iranian Supreme Leader's advisor regarding the potential disruption of air traffic in the region, stating that obstructing Iran's flights would lead to a shutdown of air traffic across the entire area. This led to the suspension of flights to and from Iran at major Iraqi airports, and a decline in market indicators in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, while energy sector stocks rose amid expectations of improved oil supplies in the Middle East. Additionally, oil prices dropped by more than 1% due to fears of supply disruptions, despite increased commercial vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
