The UAE stands in solidarity with Egypt and denounces Israeli statements

The UAE expressed its full solidarity with Egypt in the face of Israeli allegations and claims regarding the Philadelphi Corridor, and strongly condemned and denounced the offensive Israeli statements in this regard, which threaten stability and exacerbate the situation in the region.

The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs praised, in a statement, Egypt's efforts, alongside the State of Qatar and the United States, to cease fire and release the hostages, expressing its hope that it will result in a calm that leads to ending the war, thus sparing the Palestinian people further suffering, and contributing to consolidating the foundations of stability and achieving sustainable security in the region.

The UAE called on the Israeli authorities to stop the escalation and not take steps that exacerbate tension and instability in the region, stressing the UAE's rejection of all practices that violate international legitimacy resolutions and threaten further escalation.

The Ministry also stressed the importance of supporting all regional and international efforts made to advance the peace process in the Middle East, as well as putting an end to the illegal practices that threaten the achievement of the two-state solution and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.
