Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he "secretly visited" the United Arab Emirates and met its president during the war with Iran.
Netanyahu's office said the meeting between the Israeli PM and President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed had led to a "historic breakthrough".
However shortly afterwards, the UAE foreign ministry said the claims about the visit were "entirely unfounded", and insisted relations between the two countries were not based on "unofficial arrangements".
Iran hit several targets in the Emirates during the conflict, and Tehran has repeatedly criticised the country for what it sees as its closer ties with the US and Israel.
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Netanyahu had "publicly revealed what Iran's security services long ago" told the country's leaders.
