Amid ongoing regional tensions, UAE officials have reaffirmed stability, preparedness and continuity across key sectors. From schools to national defence, here’s the latest.
During a media briefing on the latest developments and current situation on Tuesday, the broadcast opened with strong condemnation from the GCC and the Arab League against violations targeting Arab states, emphasizing the right to respond to such attacks.
Attention then shifted to education.

She emphasised that the UAE is fully prepared, highlighting the country’s advanced digital infrastructure and previous experience with remote learning.
Importantly, she clarified that no exams have been postponed, and urged the public to rely only on official sources for updates.

Later, authorities addressed misinformation.
The Public Prosecution warned against spreading rumours, stressing that false information can negatively impact social stability and national security.
Officials reassured the public not to panic and that any loud booming sounds heard around the country were the result of the country’s defence systems operating effectively.
Life continues as normal, trust in official authorities, and avoid spreading rumours or engaging in fraudulent activity, was the message from officials.
