Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan said the United Arab Emirates would emerge stronger from the ongoing war, warning that the country should not be mistaken for weak and stressing that the UAE is “not an easy target.”

Speaking during a televised interview while visiting injured victims in the hospital, the UAE president said that although the country may appear attractive and inspiring to the world, its strength and determination should never be underestimated.

“The UAE may appear attractive, but its hand is firm,” Sheikh Mohamed said, emphasizing that the nation remains committed to protecting its sovereignty, people, and residents.

The remarks came during a hospital visit where the president checked on five individuals injured in recent incidents, including two Emirati nationals, one Indian, one Sudanese, and one Iranian.

Sheikh Mohamed described the injured individuals as a responsibility entrusted to the nation, highlighting the UAE’s commitment to caring for everyone living within its borders regardless of nationality.

The visit underscored the leadership’s message of solidarity and resilience as the country navigates heightened regional tensions while continuing to prioritize the safety and well-being of its citizens and residents.
