On May 4, the UAE was once again subjected to Iranian airstrikes, with alarms sounding in multiple locations across the country. Relevant government departments in the UAE have urged the public to adhere to safety instructions when alarms are sounded and to obtain information from official channels.

The Chinese Embassy and Consulates in the UAE remind Chinese citizens in the UAE to enhance their awareness of security precautions, closely monitor the local security situation, and pay attention to relevant announcements and alerts issued by UAE government departments. They should stay away from military bases and sensitive facilities that may be targeted, and strictly comply with local laws and regulations as well as government requirements. Do not take or publish videos and photos of the attack sites or sensitive areas such as airports, ports, and military facilities. In case of emergencies, please report to the police immediately and contact the Chinese Embassy or Consulate in the UAE.
