Mystery deepens over MBZ’s health as foreign visits get abruptly cancelled | UAE

Questions are swirling over the whereabouts and health of Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan after two high-profile visits were abruptly cancelled within 24 hours. Recep Tayyip Erdogan cited a “health problem” while postponing his trip and later deleted a message wishing MBZ a speedy recovery. Kyriakos Mitsotakis also cancelled his visit, opting instead for a phone call. The Emirates News Agency released a routine readout with no mention of health concerns. In the absence of official clarification, social media has been flooded with unverified speculation, including claims of internal rivalry involving Tahnoun bin Zayed Al Nahyan — allegations for which no evidence has emerged.
