The UAE has announced its solidarity with Iraq and its people against organised terrorist attacks, targeting its institutions and its religious, cultural and civilisational fabric. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation's statement added that targeting the brotherly people of Iraq is part of a division and hatred scene which affects our region and seeks, through terrorism, to feed abhorrent sectarianism.
