UAE President Sheikh Mohamed pushes for immediate ceasefire in Israel-Gaza war
President Sheikh Mohamed called for an immediate ceasefire in the Israel-Gaza conflict during an online summit of leaders of the Brics countries. He emphasized the need to protect civilians and provide unrestricted humanitarian access to the Gaza Strip.
“At a virtual BRICS summit discussing the situation in the Gaza Strip, the UAE reiterated its call for the protection of civilian lives, unrestricted humanitarian access, and an immediate ceasefire,” Sheikh Mohamed wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“The international community has a great responsibility to pursue all efforts aimed at ending the conflict and achieving a fair and lasting peace.”
The online summit was hosted by South Africa and attended by Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and other leaders from the Brics bloc.
Days after the summit, a convoy from the UAE was sent to Gaza, carrying 252 tonnes of supplies, including food parcels and tents.
The aid is part of Operation Gallant Knight 3, a directive issued by Sheikh Mohamed to provide humanitarian support to the Palestinian enclave.
Since the war between Hamas and Israel began, the UAE has sent 49 aircraft containing vital supplies to Gaza. Additionally, the UAE announced plans to build three water desalination plants in Gaza, each with a production capacity of 200,000 gallons a day to supply drinking water to 300,000 people.
The UAE continues to show its commitment to supporting Gaza and relief efforts in the region. Stay updated on the latest developments in the Israel-Gaza conflict with our live updates.
