The tiny Jewish community in the UAE appears to be benefiting from the growing ties between Jerusalem and Abu Dhabi.

Israel’s semi-clandestine diplomatic relations with the Gulf nations, spurred by a mutual distrust of Iran, seems to be benefiting not only these countries.

The Jewish community of the UAE, numbering roughly 100 people, appears to be enjoying an improved status and has recently created a Twitter account, no longer shunning publicity.
