PARIS: The stock exchanges in Dubai and Abu Dhabi will be closed &#8220;until further notice&#8221; due to the ongoing conflict in the region, the UAE&#8217;s financial regulatory authority announced Sunday.
The Emirates have been hit by Iranian strikes since Saturday in response to joint Israeli-US attacks on the Islamic republic.
An initial statement said the closure would be for Monday and Tuesday, but that position was quickly revised.
&#8220;The Authority confirms that it will continue to closely monitor developments in the region and assess the situation on an ongoing basis, taking any further measures as necessary,&#8221; said the statement.
&#8220;All parties concerned are advised to follow official UAE Capital Market Authority, ADX and DFM channels for further updates,&#8221; it added.
