The UAE President, His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, has said that November 30 is a day that strengthens people’s loyalty to the UAE, while remembering the heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
In a statement to mark Commemoration Day, observed on November 30 each year, His Highness spoke of the UAE’s admiration and respect for those who gave their lives and vowed that their sacrifice would not be forgotten.
“On this day, we stand in admiration and respect for the UAE’s martyrs who lost their lives while protecting the sovereignty of our land and keeping our flag flying high. We vow that their sacrifices will remain etched in the memories of future generations, and we renew our pledge that the UAE leadership will continue to support the children and the families of our martyrs.
We remember with respect and appreciation the efforts of my late brother, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, who designated November 30 as a day to salute the precious sacrifices of the nation's martyrs who gave their lives while defending our nation. The UAE was founded by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan and his brothers, the Founding Fathers, on the values of giving and sacrifice.
