The UAE's Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned "in the strongest terms" the targeting "for the second time in a week," of the General Consulate in Iraqi Kurdistan.
"Targeting diplomatic missions and premises constitutes a flagrant violation of all international norms and laws, particularly the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, which guarantees full inviolability for diplomatic premises and personnel. This attack represents a dangerous escalation and a threat to regional security and stability," the ministry said in a statement on Saturday.
The UAE further urged the governments of the Republic of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government to investigate the circumstances of the attacks, which wounded two security personnel, to "identify those responsible and to take all necessary measures to ensure that the perpetrators are held accountable."
