The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan and diplomatic missions in the United Arab Emirates have issued an urgent appeal to compatriots in Dubai and other regions. Due to the sharp escalation of the situation in the Middle East, enhanced measures are being taken to ensure the safety of the republic's citizens.
Currently, air traffic with the UAE has been temporarily suspended due to restrictions on the use of airspace in the region. Diplomats are urging citizens to remain calm and strictly follow established safety rules.
To ensure personal safety, Uzbek citizens are strongly advised to:
- Strictly comply with local laws and all instructions from official UAE authorities.
- Refrain from going outside unless absolutely necessary and avoid any places with large crowds.
- Trust only information from official sources, avoiding unverified rumors.
Hotlines have been opened for immediate communication and assistance in case of emergencies. Citizens can contact the following phone numbers: +971 55 986 9040 and +971 55 956 4110. The diplomatic corps continues to operate in an enhanced mode to coordinate actions and support compatriots.
Recall that earlier the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan published an official appeal to citizens abroad or planning trips overseas. The ministry calls on compatriots to exercise vigilance and follow a series of recommendations to ensure their own safety amid the changing international situation.
