Rumours claiming that the UAE is cancelling residency visas for people from certain countries have been circulating widely online in recent days, sparking questions and speculation across social media platforms.

Emirati politician and diplomatic adviser Anwar Gargash has now addressed the claims directly, describing them as false.

Gargash said the UAE remains focused on dealing with the current regional developments and on what comes next, rather than on the measures alleged in the online posts.

Residents have been advised to rely on official government channels for information about visa and residency procedures.
