Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed praises Emirati woman who saved life of truck driver

Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, received Jawaher Saif Al Kumaiti to honour her humanitarian actions, bravery, heroism and quick thinking, which saved the life of an Asian driver.

The driver was involved in an accident that resulted in his truck and clothes catching fire, but Al Kumaiti acted quickly to save his life, by using her friend’s abaya to put out the fire.

Sheikh Mohammed praised the heroic stance of Al Kumaiti while expressing his appreciation and pride for her spontaneous humanitarian act.

He added that the act was not unusual for the children of Zayed the Giving, who were raised and educated by the teachings of the late Sheikh Zayed, whose legacy is being followed by President Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed.

Al Kumaiti explained that her actions could be considered a first-class humanitarian act, as she was raised on love and giving and a belief in rescuing those in need, through the ideology of the country and the wise leadership.

She expressed her appreciation to Sheikh Mohammed and his generous gesture to receive her at Qasr Al Bahr.
