World's tallest building lights up national flag, reads 'UAE supports Russia'

According to TASS , the world's tallest building, Burj Khalifa in Dubai (UAE), lit up the Russian flag on the evening of March 23 to commemorate the victims of the terrorist attack at the Crocus shopping center in the suburbs of Moscow on March 22.

Not only did the entire building light up with the Russian flag, the Burj Khalifa also displayed the words "UAE supports Russia" in Arabic and English. The activity was carried out by the Dubai Municipality and the development company Emaar.

In addition to Burj Khalifa, many other buildings in Dubai also lit up the Russian flag to commemorate the victims, such as the Khalifa University building, the oil company ADNOC, the exhibition company ADNEC and several other buildings.

According to WAM news agency, the lighting of the Russian flag in Dubai on the evening of March 23 shows the UAE's clear opposition to all forms of violence and terrorism that aim to cause instability and are inconsistent with international law.

This initiative is also proof that the UAE leaders and people support Russia and its people in the fight against terrorism.

On March 22, a terrorist attack occurred at the Crocus City Hall complex, located in Krasnogorsk, a city in the Moscow Region. The complex includes a theater, a shopping center, an exhibition center, a children's entertainment center, and a wedding venue.

TASS said they witnessed at least three suspects, three men in camouflage, breaking into the concert hall area, shooting at people at close range and throwing petrol bombs. Russian security forces later successfully arrested three suspects as they ran near the Ukrainian border on the afternoon of March 23 (local time).

According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, preliminary data shows that "a door was prepared" from Ukraine for the group to cross the border. However, Ukraine firmly denies any connection with the terrorist incident.
