Furthermore, a transit hub and processing center have been set up in Abu Dhabi to conduct health and security screenings of passengers arriving from Afghanistan before they move forward to their destination countries. French, Australian, and UK citizens are among the many evacuees received and assisted by UAE authorities during the critical time.

"It is an honor for the UAE to work side-by-side with its partners in the international community to achieve all that serves the interests of the Afghan people, as well as foreign nationals being evacuated from Afghanistan on humanitarian grounds," said Salem Mohammed Al Zaabi, Director of the International Security Cooperation Department at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation. 

It is the years of commitment showcased by the UAE leadership to provide a better quality of life to Afghan nationals that are facilitating humanitarian aid and relief assistance to people in need in Afghanistan.
