Dubai: Lieutenant General His Highness Sheikh Saif bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, affirmed that, under the vision of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE, the UAE has made human security a responsibility that transcends borders, and international cooperation a force for combating crime and protecting societies.
His Highness stated on his official X platform: “In embodiment of this vision, the Ministry of Interior led Operation ‘Ghost Confrontation,’ with the participation of 30 countries, 13 international companies, and two international organisations, achieving significant milestones, including the discovery of funds and assets exceeding $39 billion, the thwarting of more than 123 million fraud attempts, and the arrest of over 960 individuals.”
He added: “The announcement by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) of the operation’s results, and its commendation of the UAE leadership’s support, underscores the importance of international partnership and the integration of UN and security efforts in combating transnational crime.”
His Highness praised the role of the United Nations, the efforts of international partners, and all the teams involved in this achievement, which reflects international confidence in the UAE and its ability to mobilise efforts and unify capabilities.
His Highness pointed out that the true value of security partnerships is not measured by the number of participants, but by their field results and their impact on protecting people and enhancing the security and stability of societies.
