April 4 (Reuters) - The United Arab Emirates on Saturday condemned what it described as "riots, acts of vandalism, and assaults" outside its diplomatic mission and the residence of its head of mission in Damascus.
The UAE called on Syria to fulfil its obligations to secure the embassy and its staff, investigate the circumstances surrounding the incident and ensure it is not repeated, the ministry said in a statement.
Videos circulating on social media, but not verified by Reuters, have showed protesters gathered outside the embassy.
