UAE Condemns Settler Attack on European Diplomatic Delegation in West Bank

The United Arab Emirates has issued a strong condemnation following an attack by Israeli settlers targeting a European diplomatic delegation visiting the occupied West Bank village of Taybeh.

In an official statement released by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the UAE voiced firm rejection of all practices that violate international law and threaten stability in the Palestinian territories. The ministry emphasized that the targeting of accredited diplomats constitutes a severe violation of established international conventions and diplomatic norms that ensure the safety and immunity of diplomatic envoys.

Abu Dhabi underscored the urgent need to halt all illegal actions and provocations that undermine prospects for regional peace and security. The UAE called on the relevant authorities to exercise full responsibility in holding perpetrators accountable and preventing repeated infractions against visiting international delegations and local civilian populations.

The official release also reiterated the UAE's steadfast position demanding a serious revitalisation of the Middle East peace process, reaffirming that lasting regional stability can only be achieved through a just, comprehensive, and sustainable solution to the Palestinian conflict founded upon the two-state framework.
