The United Arab Emirates joins the call issued by His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Amir of Qatar, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi of Egypt, and President Joe Biden of the United States to conclude the ceasefire and hostages and detainees release deal.

As outlined by the three leaders, the agreement currently on the table would end the suffering of the people of Gaza and the hostages and their families. The UAE hopes that the parties will not delay this any further.

Finally, the UAE reiterates its deep appreciation and complete support for the tireless mediation efforts by Egypt, Qatar, and the United States to reach an agreement to end the misery in Gaza.
