On March 9, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) articulated its strong condemnation of the recent attack on a helicopter associated with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) as well as the South Sudan People’s Defence Forces (SSPDF) in Upper Nile State. This incident led to the death of a member of the international force and several government troops, as well as injuries sustained by two crew members.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) underscored the attack’s violation of international law principles while expressing solidarity with nations contributing to the UNMISS forces. The Ministry conveyed its condolences to both the UN and the Government of the Republic of South Sudan, wishing for a swift recovery for those injured in the assault.
The UAE’s strong condemnation of the attack on UNMISS forces and SSPDF highlights its commitment to upholding international law. In expressing solidarity with participating countries and offering condolences, the UAE reaffirms its support for peacekeeping efforts in South Sudan. Such attacks not only undermine the mission of international forces but also jeopardize stability in the region.
