UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and his US counterpart Joe Biden have emphasised the critical need to prioritise the protection of civilians caught up in the on-going conflict between Israel and Hamas.
The two leaders spoke on a call on Wednesday and discussed efforts to contain the current situation, in light of increasing violence and escalation, which gravely threaten regional security and stability.
They also discussed the need to open safe corridors to enable the delivery of humanitarian aid and urged coordination among regional and international parties in calling for restraint and immediate de-escalation.
During the call, Sheikh Mohamed and Biden also reviewed the close strategic partnership between the two countries, as well as opportunities to further develop ties in various fields.
