The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has recently expanded its Local Terrorist List, adding 19 individuals and companies due to their affiliations with the terrorist group the Muslim Brotherhood, This move is part of the UAE's broader efforts to combat terrorism and dismantle networks involved in financing terrorists both domestically and internationally.

Approved by the UAE Cabinet, the ruling came under Resolution No. (1) of 2025, This action conforms with the strict laws and regulations of the nation, which expressly permitted the inclusion of eleven persons and eight entities in the list of organizations and people supporting terrorism. 

The UAE's continuous fight against terrorism aims to destroy networks connected to it so that direct and indirect assistance is focused on another direction. Local financial institutions and regulatory agencies are required as part of this resolution to act appropriately to implement the decision in line with the national policies and laws, therefore ensuring compliance. By focusing on its financial donors and networks, this action underscores UAE's will to combat terrorism. 

The persons added to the UAE’s Local Terrorist List span a range of countries, with several having connections to the UAE, Sweden, Yemen and Turkey, Among the newly named persons are Yousuf Hassan Ahmed Al Mulla, who possesses Swedish citizenship but formerly held Liberian nationality, and Saeed Khadim Ahmed bin Touq Al Marri, a dual national of Turkey and the UAE. Other individuals on the list include Ibrahim Ahmed Ibrahim Ali Al Hammadi, a dual national of Sweden and the UAE, as well as Emiratis such as Ilham Abdullah Ahmed Al Hashimi, Jasem Rashid Khalfan Rashid Al Shamsi, and Khaled Obaid Yousuf Buatabh Al Zaabi. Several more UAE citizens, including Abdulrahman Hassan Munif Abdullah Hassan Al Jabri, Humaid Abdullah Abdulrahman Al Jarman Al Nuaimi, Abdulrahman Omar Salem Bajbair Al Hadrami, Ali Hassan Ali Hussein Al Hammadi, and Mohammed Ali Hassan Ali Al Hammadi, have also been added to the list. 

Alongside individuals, eight companies have been recognized and placed in the UAE's Local Terrorist List. All these entities are situated in the United Kingdom, further proving the international extent of the UAE’s anti-terrorism operations, The organizations listed include Cambridge Education and Training Center Ltd, IMA6INE Ltd, Wembley Tree Ltd, Waslaforall, Future Graduates Ltd, Yas for Investment and Real Estate, Holdco UK Properties Limited, and Nafel Capital, These companies are thought to be connected to financing or encouragement of terrorism, so their inclusion on the list shows UAE's will to combat terrorist networks internationally.

This enlarged list marks a significant turn in UAE's continuous fight against terrorism and financing of it. The legal system of the nation lets one implement such actions in response to mounting worries about the spread of extreme ideas and behaviors connected to terrorism. Including these people and organizations on the Local Terrorist List helps the UAE to show once more its dedication to preserving national and international security. This measure also conveys a clear message that the UAE would not accept any kind of assistance for terrorism and will keep acting forcefully to guard its people and worldwide allies from the menace of terrorism.
