H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, praised the mediation efforts led by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States in brokering the ceasefire. He acknowledged their critical role in fostering dialogue and achieving this pivotal agreement.

“Sheikh Abdullah expressed his aspirations for the agreement to alleviate suffering, prevent further loss of life, and bring an end to the tragic conditions in Gaza,” according to the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Humanitarian Priorities

The UAE emphasized the urgent need for sustainable and unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to civilians affected by the prolonged crisis in Gaza.
