This attack has been criticized by many countries and organisations, expressing solidarity with the UAE. The countries and the organisations have described the attack as a “cowardly terrorist attack”.

The statements were shared following the UAE’s Ministry of Defence confirmed that the nation had destroyed two ballistic missiles by the Houthis, on early Monday.

The attack was made after the Yemen-based terror group attacked Abu Dhabi for the second time.

Many countries denounced the attack and stated:-

United Nations:

The Secretary-General Antonio Guterres upbraided the airstrikes, because of which three citizens lost their lives, and his spokesman stated that “The international humanitarian law would not accept the attacks against the civilians and civilian infrastructure.”
