KALBA // Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid has offered his condolences to the family of fallen UAE serviceman Sultan Saeed Al Mazrouie.
Al Mazroeui died last week due to a failure in a vehicle’s engine in Yemen, where he was part of the Saudi-led Arab coalition’s Operation Restoring Hope.
According to Wam, the state news agency, Sheikh Mohammed expressed his heartfelt condolences to the family of the deceased and prayed for his soul.
He was accompanied by his son, Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, and Lt Gen Misbah Al Fattan, director of the office, and Khalifa Saeed, director general of the department of protocol and hospitality in Dubai.
Yemen’s minister of human rights, Izz Al Din Al Asbahi, praised the role played by the UAE in Yemen.
His comments came at a press conference held by the Arab Commission for Human Rights at the Arab League in Cairo to review its report on Yemen.
Mr Al Asbahi said the UAE plays a great role in restoring full stability in Yemen, and said that UAE martyrs’ sacrifices emphasise the promotion of Arab unity.
Dr Hadi Bin Ali Al Yami, chairman of Arab Human Rights Committee, The Charter Committee, said the report included important observations about the violations of human rights and international humanitarian law.
He expressed his deep regret over the humanitarian situation that has led to suffering of the Yemeni people.

TEACHERS' PAY - WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Pay varies significantly depending on the school, its rating and the curriculum. Here's a rough guide as of January 2021:
- top end schools tend to pay Dh16,000-17,000 a month - plus a monthly housing allowance of up to Dh6,000. These tend to be British curriculum schools rated 'outstanding' or 'very good', followed by American schools
- average salary across curriculums and skill levels is about Dh10,000, recruiters say
- it is becoming more common for schools to provide accommodation, sometimes in an apartment block with other teachers, rather than hand teachers a cash housing allowance
- some strong performing schools have cut back on salaries since the pandemic began, sometimes offering Dh16,000 including the housing allowance, which reflects the slump in rental costs, and sheer demand for jobs
- maths and science teachers are most in demand and some schools will pay up to Dh3,000 more than other teachers in recognition of their technical skills
- at the other end of the market, teachers in some Indian schools, where fees are lower and competition among applicants is intense, can be paid as low as Dh3,000 per month
- in Indian schools, it has also become common for teachers to share residential accommodation, living in a block with colleagues
