The UAE has strongly condemned the drone attack that targeted a logistics base of the United Nations Interim Security Force for Abyei (UNISFA) in the city of Kadugli in Sudan that killed six Bangladeshi peacekeepers and injured eight on Saturday.

In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) reiterated the UAE’s permanent rejection of all forms of violence aimed at undermining security and stability.

It reaffirmed the UAE’s disapproval of attacks targeting peacekeeping forces, emphasising that the targeting of UNISFA is in violation of international law and the UN Security Council resolution 2802, which emphasises the role of the forces. 

The ministry also offered its sincere condolences and sympathy to the victims' families, the interim government and people of Bangladesh, and to the UN, wishing for a speedy recovery for all the injured.
