UAE Denounces Tragic San Diego Mosque Attack

Wed, May 20, 2026(93d ago)UAE

The United Arab Emirates has officially condemned the horrific armed assault at a San Diego mosque, an incident that law enforcement is currently investigating as a potential hate crime. Following a confrontation that left three individuals dead, authorities discovered the two teenage suspects deceased in a vehicle from apparent self-inflicted wounds. In an official statement, the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its firm rejection of all forms of extremism and terrorism, emphasizing its commitment to global stability while extending heartfelt condolences to the victims' families and the American people.

Prominent leaders and local community figures have joined the chorus of condemnation, describing the violence as a heartbreaking attack on a place of worship. Taha Hassane, the mosque's imam, expressed deep sorrow over the unprecedented tragedy, confirming that those inside the facility’s school were safe and offering prayers for the affected families. Meanwhile, U.S. officials, including Governor Gavin Newsom and various political leaders, have unequivocally denounced the act, stressing that hate-motivated violence against faith communities will not be tolerated and affirming their solidarity with the Muslim population in California.
