There is a moment of disbelief because another tweets: WOW! Israel's national anthem 'HaTikva' played in the United Arab Emirates as Israel's President Isaac Herzog is visiting Abu Dhabi."
Yes. Its all happening in the UAE and under the eyes of everyone and shows the importance of the Abraham accords that Abu Dhabi signed with Israel that included Bahrain in the White House lawn in Washington in September 2020.
