UAE strongly condemns Israeli strikes on Gaza's Nasser Medical Complex

Abu Dhabi: The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has firmly denounced the Israeli airstrikes on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, the southern Gaza Strip. The strikes resulted in casualties and injuries among innocent civilians, a clear breach of international humanitarian law. The UAE's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) warned against the escalating Israeli aggression, which worsens the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.

The MoFA emphasized the UAE's firm stance against the targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure, highlighting the critical importance of safeguarding medical facilities, institutions, and healthcare workers during times of conflict. The ministry stressed that the primary objective is to protect civilian lives and ensure the safe, unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.

The UAE called on the international community to bolster efforts towards achieving a comprehensive peace based on the two-state solution. This solution must address the aspirations of the Palestinian people for an independent and sovereign state, in line with relevant international legitimacy resolutions.
