UAE martyrs: We salute their bravery
These terrorists think that their stealth operation against our UAE sons will deter us from fighting for our Yemeni brothers. This will not deter anyone and it will only make us stronger and more invested in cleansing Yemen of their evil.
As His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, said: “Cleansing Yemen of the coup and the aggressive militia, that wreaked havoc and sabotage, is a goal that will not be deflected. People of the UAE are firm to go on the path of this operation to stop oppression and injustice towards our fellow Yemenis.”
This quote comes from a leadership that always executes what they promise. It’s not just emotional words or to console the hearts of the UAE people, but it’s a true promise. An honest promise from leadership who knows what they say.
In the UAE, leaders and, we, their people will all sacrifice the most precious that we have - our brave sons who have been raised with pride and honour. The blood of the UAE sons is not in vain and today it’s our revenge for who assaulted them. We will only accept to see Al Houthi rebels and the former President of Yemen’s, Ali Abdullah Saleh, people defeated and cast away from our big Arabian home.

From the depths of our hearts
First, let us each one of us from the depths of our hearts salute the Emirati martyrs who have died fighting in Yemen. Let us offer our condolences to each of the families whose loved ones sacrificed their lives for this brave country. Each individual is a loss to the country and now the total number of deaths has risen, which is difficult to come to terms with and unimaginable. They sacrificed their lives upholding the values of the UAE. Still, the loss to the individual families cannot be wholly expressed in words. May God give them all the power and strength to cope with their loss.

The courageous
The sad news of the death of Emirati soldiers in Yemen is like a lightning bolt. It is unbearable for their families, their kith and kin, and the entire country. These soldiers are brave and courageous. Soldiers are ordained for sacrificing their lives for making their country proud and prestigious. That is what they have done now. The people of the UAE and around the world will stand behind the esteemed leadership of the UAE on this sad occasion.
