The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has warned of a possible regional spillover from the Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza and is working to secure a humanitarian ceasefire. The UAE, which signed the 2020 Abraham Accords with Israel, aimed to normalize ties with Saudi Arabia, but the war has hindered these plans. The country sees groups like Hamas as an existential threat and is concerned about the risk of further escalation and extremist groups taking advantage of the situation. The UAE is calling for efforts to protect civilians and end the conflict.
