Flag Day

It’s a great initiative taken by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai who urged all the residents and citizens to raise the UAE national flag on Nov.3 at 10am to mark the National Flag Day (“UAE to mark Flag Day on Nov.3, announces Sheikh Mohammed,” Oct.26, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, Sheikh Mohammed took to his X platform to announce the date and time for this year’s Flag Day. “Brothers and sisters, as we are accustomed to every year, we celebrate Flag Day on Nov.3. We celebrate the flag of the homeland, the flag of our pride, dignity, and glorious union,” wrote Sheikh Mohammed on his X handle.

I am sure everyone in the United Arab Emirates will celebrate Flag Day on Nov.3 with full energy and enthusiasm while raising the UAE flag.
