UAE Condemns Israel's Expansion in Golan Heights

The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned Israel’s decision to expand settlements in the occupied Golan Heights, a move that could escalate tensions and further destabilize the region. This decision by the Israeli government has sparked concerns not only within the UAE but also across the international community.

In an official statement, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) reiterated the country’s firm stance on the unity, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of Syria. The Ministry called Israel’s settlement expansion a deliberate attempt to deepen the occupation of the Golan Heights, which it views as a violation of international law.

The UAE’s statement made it clear that the country categorically rejects any measures aimed at altering the legal status of the Golan Heights. The UAE also expressed its concern that these actions threaten the security, stability, and sovereignty of Syria.

The Golan Heights, a strategically important plateau, has been under Israeli control since the 1967 Six-Day War, and the expansion of settlements there has been a long-standing point of contention. The international community largely considers the Golan Heights to be occupied territory, and Israel’s actions continue to be seen as a violation of international norms.

As tensions rise, many are calling for an urgent international response to prevent further escalation. The UAE’s stance serves as a reminder of the importance of respecting international agreements and ensuring that territorial disputes are resolved peacefully, in line with established global frameworks.
