The President thanked the Armed Forces of the Emirates for their service during this challenging time and emphasized the importance of the work of law enforcement agencies for the country.
Additionally, Al Nahyan highlighted the significance of foreign residents for the UAE, expressing gratitude for their contributions.
He stated: "We are in a state of war, and I promise 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."
The UAE leader also visited five victims of the attacks from Tehran, among whom were two UAE citizens and one representative each from India, Sudan, and Iran, noting that caring for the wounded is "our responsibility."
The President added: "The UAE is an attractive and exemplary country, but do not be deceived. We have thick skin and bitter flesh — we cannot be consumed."
It is worth noting that since February 28, the United States and Israel have been conducting Operation "Lion's Roar," aimed at Iran, to which Tehran responded with strikes on the territories of neighboring countries where American air bases are located.
