UAE Ambassador to Ukraine Salem Ahmed Salem Al Kaabi emphasized that the UAE remains committed to providing humanitarian aid to meet the essential needs of the Ukrainian people.

This commitment aligns with the UAE's long-standing approach to supporting humanitarian efforts for those in need and distressed communities worldwide.
