The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned the Iranian Revolutionary Guard’s targeting of Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, describing the act as a blatant violation of Qatar’s sovereignty and airspace, as well as a clear breach of international law and the United Nations Charter, Gulf News reports.
“The UAE reaffirms its unequivocal rejection of any aggression that endangers Qatar’s security and undermines regional stability,” a statement reads.
The ministry has expressed the UAE’s full solidarity with Qatar and its unwavering support for all measures aimed at safeguarding the safety and security of its citizens and residents.
“The Ministry also emphasises the urgent need to de-escalate militarily, warning that continued provocative actions risk destabilising regional security and could lead the region down a dangerous path with potentially catastrophic consequences for international peace and stability,” the statement added.
“The Ministry emphasises the importance of restoring diplomatic channels and respecting the principles of good neighbourliness, stressing that serious and constructive dialogue remains the only viable path to resolving ongoing crises and preserving the security, stability, and prosperity of the region and its people.”
