The head of state expressed gratitude to the Armed Forces of the Emirates for their contribution "during this difficult time" and noted the "honorable service" of the security forces to the country.
Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan also emphasized the significance of foreign residents in the UAE.
“We are in a state of war, and I guarantee that we will fulfill our duty. This situation has been imposed on us, and we are acting to protect ourselves, our families, and our country,” he added.
Additionally, the president visited five individuals injured as a result of the attacks from Iran, including two UAE citizens, as well as one representative each from India, Sudan, and Iran, noting that they are "under our care."
“The UAE is an attractive and exemplary country, but do not be deceived. We have strong defenses, and we will not be broken,” the president stated.
It is important to note that since February 28 of this year, the USA and Israel have been conducting Operation "Lion's Roar," aimed at Iran. In response, Tehran has begun striking territories of neighboring states where American military airbases are located.
