UAE Strongly Condemns Terrorist Attack on Indian-Flagged Ship off the Coast of Oman
The United Arab Emirates has condemned in the strongest terms the terrorist attack targeting an Indian-flagged ship off the coast of the Sultanate of Oman.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) affirmed that this attack constitutes a grave threat to the security of international navigation and represents a dangerous escalation aimed at undermining the stability of critical waterways.
The UAE expressed its solidarity with the Republic of India and its full support for all measures aimed at safeguarding the security and safety of its vessels and interests.
The Ministry underscored that this attack constitutes a flagrant violation of UN Security Council Resolution 2817, which affirmed the importance of freedom of navigation and rejected the targeting of commercial vessels or the obstruction of international maritime routes. The Ministry further emphasized that targeting commercial shipping and using the Strait of Hormuz as a tool of economic coercion or blackmail represent acts of piracy and constitute a direct threat to the stability of the region, its peoples, and global energy security.
