The United Arab Emirates “strongly condemns” Israel’s Jenin operation, calling for “the immediate halt of repeated and escalating campaigns against the Palestinian people.”

The UAE Foreign Ministry also stresses the need to return to regional and international peace efforts and end practices that threaten a two-state solution.

The UAE’s tone is noticeably less strident than that of Jordan and Egypt.
