Sharjah24-WAM: The Arab Republic of Egypt strongly condemned the drone attack on the vicinity of the Barakah Nuclear Power Plant in the sisterly United Arab Emirates, which resulted in a fire affecting an electrical generator located outside the facility’s inner perimeter.

In a statement carried by the Egyptian Gazette, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that this act represents a serious escalation, a clear violation of the UAE's sovereignty, and a breach of the principles and rules of international law.

The Ministry reaffirmed its full solidarity with the UAE and reiterated its steadfast position that the security and stability of the UAE and all Gulf States remain integral to Egypt’s national security.
