United Arab Emirates Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan on Saturday said that his country will not support a plan for "the day after" the war between Israel and Hamas unless a Palestinian state is created. "The UAE is not prepared to support the day after the war in Gaza without the establishment of a Palestinian state," Al Nahyan wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

In doing so, the UAE became the first Arab country to announce its support for such a process. In May, Al Nahyan rejected a proposal by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in which Abu Dhabi would aid Gazans in governing the enclave following the end of the war.
