The Ministry of Labour has donated Dh86,000 as part of an initiative in developing countires to honour fallen UAE servicemen.
The ministry and the Emirates Red Crescent launched the initiative last month under the title “Digging wells to honour the martyrs”. It assists the ERC with digging wells in underdeveloped countries.
The donation is made in recognition for the sacrifices of UAE soldiers who have died while participating in Operation Restoring Hope in Yemen.
Mubarak Al Dhahiri, undersecretary of the ministry, praised the collaboration between the two entities, saying the ministry “values such initiatives, especially the sacrifices made by our martyrs”.
Mohammed Al Zarouni, director of the ERC in Dubai, thanked the ministry for its financial contribution.

Chef Nobu's advice for eating sushi
“One mistake people always make is adding extra wasabi. There is no need for this, because it should already be there between the rice and the fish.
“When eating nigiri, you must dip the fish – not the rice – in soy sauce, otherwise the rice will collapse. Also, don’t use too much soy sauce or it will make you thirsty. For sushi rolls, dip a little of the rice-covered roll lightly in soy sauce and eat in one bite.
“Chopsticks are acceptable, but really, I recommend using your fingers for sushi. Do use chopsticks for sashimi, though.
“The ginger should be eaten separately as a palette cleanser and used to clear the mouth when switching between different pieces of fish.”
