The meeting was attended by members of the delegation accompanying Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and a number of Saudi princes and officials.

The meeting comes ahead of the two emergency Arab summits called by the Saudi King in Makkah later this week, on May 30.

The summits will discuss the implications of drone strikes on oil installations in the kingdom and attacks on four vessels, including two Saudi oil tankers, off the UAE coast earlier this month.
