Intelligence Online has published that the UAE is gradually urging the movements that support it to lead and normalize its relations with Israel, and that economic and security interests are behind this convergence.

The site pointed out that the UAE has been going to normalize its relations with Israel for several years, and that Abu Dhabi's allies are now following the example of their sponsor.

According to our information - as the website says - the Southern Transitional Council (the Yemeni-sponsored separatist movement) has recently expressed a willingness to establish relations with Israel, and secret talks are currently taking place with it.

The same applies to retired Major General Khalifa Hifter in Libya, who is seeking new support after the successive setbacks before the National Accord government, headed by Fayez al-Sarraj and backed by Turkey.

The website had previously reported that communication between Haftar and Tel Aviv had been going on for two years, and it also stated that Palestinians close to Mohammed Dahlan - the chief security advisor to Abu Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed - were also committed to normalizing their relations with Israel.

This rapprochement comes with Abu Dhabi's announcement of its relations with Israel in the aftermath of the Corona virus crisis, as aircraft from the Emirates airline fleet unusually landed on the runway of Ben Gurion on May 20 and June 9 last, loaded with humanitarian aid to the West Bank, However, the Palestinian Authority refused medical aid as it was not a party to coordination on the extradition that was made exclusively with Israel.

The site pointed out that Abu Dhabi is looking forward from these moves to take advantage of the implicit recognition of Israel to secure new contracts for cybersecurity, just as the agreement was aimed at last June 20 to facilitate joint research within the framework of the current epidemic. He added that normalization has more traditional security motives, as Israel and the UAE hope to form a common front against Iran and its influence in the Middle East.

Intelligence Online added that the relations between Israel and Abu Dhabi were started in 2007 by Israeli businessmen in the emirate, but they remained secret. Israeli businessman Matti Kochavi - who works from the United States and Switzerland - has been a pioneer in this field since 2009, providing The emirate has safety technology to protect its borders, especially from the Swiss company "AGT", and in 2013, the South African diamond merchant David Hershwitz worked for the company Raphael in Abu Dhabi.

Since 2015, David Maidan, Mossad’s client, for 30 years, has served the services of his consulting firm David Maidan Projects (David Meidan Projects) to companies such as NSO Group, which specializes in electronic intelligence in partnership with Muhammad Dahlan.

Avi Leumi, the former director of the Aeronautics Defense Systems (Drones Systems), moved to Abu Dhabi during the same period, and the company has been focusing arms contracts communications between Tel Aviv and Abu Dhabi since 2017.
