‘We celebrate determination’

His Highness Shaikh Saud Bin Rashid Al Mualla, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Umm Al Quwain, said: “The UAE’s martyrs have acquired their noble principles from their deep-rooted faith and devotion to the homeland, and from the national and moral education that they have inherited through the generations. Today they have become role models of bravery, courage and determination that we want to celebrate.”

Commemoration Day is an opportunity to celebrate the sacrifices made by the martyrs to protect the glory, assets and gains of the country, he added.

“The UAE’s martyrs will always be role models for the sons of the homeland who will continue to pursue the path of goodness and glory,” he said.
