Special ceremonies were held after the arrival of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed and Their Highnesses Rulers of the Emirates to Wahat Al Karama.

Later on, the national anthem was played and a 21-gun salute was fired by the artillery. A number of the UAE Air Force aircrafts flew in a tribute to the martyrs. Sheikhs laid the wreaths at the Memorial of Martyrs in recognition of their sacrifices and the UAE’s national anthem was played.

The leaders also honoured 18 families of martyrs and presented the Martyr Medal in recognition of their sacrifices for the sake of the homeland.

''The history of nations and people witnesses moments of pride and great milestones. Today is one of the most brilliant moments in the history of the UAE. Today, the Emiratis pay tribute and express their appreciation towards those who presented sacrifices for the sake of their homeland," H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Co-operation, told the audience.

"Martyrs of the nation have written the story of the country’s pride. They translated courage, belonging and loyalty values in reality to defend the country’s achievements. The martyrdom of Salem Suhail bin Khamis, the first martyr in the history of the UAE, is a symbol of national sacrifices and it is instilled in our souls. At the same time, our history has proven the Emiratis’ willingness to defend their country with strength and heroism, pride and loyalty, as our forefathers fought against invaders and sacrificed their souls for the sake of this homeland. Homeland, for Emiratis, is the most precious thing in their social system," he added.

"On this day every year, the UAE leadership and people recall the story of those elite youths who sacrificed their souls for the sake of their dear country. Their sacrifices are a source of pride for all of us. Their sacrifices have proven the national spirit of the UAE citizens; consequently they united behind the flag of the homeland and wise leadership," Sheikh Abdullah said.

"Today, we have the right to be proud of the families of martyrs, not only because they are the families of those great men, but also because they taught them the meaning of belonging; for that, we highly appreciate them," he noted.

He concluded, "We celebrate their immortality, not their passing away, the acts of heroism which will be immortal in the memory of this great homeland."
