It has been used by UAE citizens and expats this morning, as the country welcomes its heroes at a grand reception at the Sweihan military camp. Top leaders and officials at the event are marking this historic day with a military parade, rousing patriotic speeches and praise for the country's brave soldiers. The first batch of UAE Armed Forces has handed over their responsibilities to the second batch, who are now stationed in Yemen.
