The embassy provided no details on the curriculum and education authorities in the Emirates did not immediately acknowledge the announcement. 

United Arab Emirates says it will teach Holocaust in schools

The United Arab Emirates will begin teaching about the Holocaust in history classes in primary and secondary schools across the country, according to its embassy in the US. 

The embassy provided no details on the curriculum and education authorities in the Emirates did not immediately acknowledge the announcement.&nbsp;

The United Arab Emirates will begin teaching about the Holocaust in history classes in primary and secondary schools across the country, the country's embassy in the US says.
The embassy provided no details on the curriculum and education authorities in the Emirates, a federation of seven sheikhdoms, did not immediately acknowledge the announcement on Monday.
However, the announcement comes after the UAE normalised relations with Israel in 2020 as part of a deal brokered by the administration of President Donald Trump.
&ldquo;In the wake of the historic (hashtag)AbrahamAccords, (the UAE) will now include the Holocaust in the curriculum for primary and secondary schools,&rdquo; the embassy said in a tweet, referring to the normalisation deal that also saw Bahrain and ultimately Morocco also recognise Israel.
Ambassador Deborah E. Lipstadt, the US special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, praised the announcement in her own tweet.
&ldquo;Holocaust education is an imperative for humanity and too many countries, for too long, continue to downplay the Shoah for political reasons,&rdquo; Lipstadt wrote, using a Hebrew word for the Holocaust. &ldquo;I commend the UAE for this step and expect others to follow suit soon.&rdquo; The announcement comes ahead of a planned meeting of the Negev Forum Working Groups in Abu Dhabi this week, which grew out of the normalisation.
The meeting will see officials from Bahrain, Egypt, Israel, Morocco, the UAE and the US attend. Egypt has diplomatically recognized Israel for decades.
The Holocaust saw Nazi Germany systematically kill 6 million European Jews during World War II.
Israel, founded in 1948 as a haven for Jews in the wake of the Holocaust, grants automatic citizenship to anyone of Jewish descent.
Other Arab nations have refused to diplomatically recognise Israel over its decades-long occupation of land Palestinians want for a future state.
The announcement by the UAE also comes after it and other Arab nations condemned an ultranationalist Israeli Cabinet minister for visiting a flashpoint Jerusalem holy site for the first time since Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's new far-right government took office.
The site, known to Jews as the Temple Mount and to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary, is the holiest site in Judaism, home to the ancient biblical Temples.
Today, it houses the Al Aqsa Mosque, the third-holiest site in Islam. Since Israel captured the site in 1967, Jews have been allowed to visit but not pray there.

Even as Russia faces growing outrage the international stage over its attack on Ukraine, Moscow scored a major diplomatic self-goal.
A senior Russian minister's comments regarding German dictator Adolf Hitler's ancestry made the Jewish nation of Israel extremely angry.
Russia's foreign minister made the comment while repeating Moscow's justification of the war by accusing Ukraine's current President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of being a neo-Nazi.
Sergey Lavrov said, "He (Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy) puts forward an argument: 'What kind of Nazification can we have if I'm a Jew?' If I remember it right, I may be wrong, but Hitler also had Jewish origins, so it doesn't mean absolutely anything. For some time, we have heard from the wise Jewish people that the biggest antisemites were Jewish."
Reacting sharply to the comment, the Israeli government sought an apology from the Russian establishment. Yair Lapid said, "The remarks of foreign minister Sergey Lavrov are an unforgivable scandal. Hitler was not from Jewish descendance, and the Jews didn't kill themselves during the holocaust. We make every effort to keep good relations with Russia but there's a limit and this limit has been crossed this time. The government of Russia needs to apologize to us and to the Jewish people."

The Tokyo Olympic organizing committee on Thursday fired the director of the opening ceremony because of a Holocaust joke he made during a comedy show in 1998. 
Kentaro Kobayashi was accused of using a joke about the Holocaust in his comedy act, including the phrase &ldquo;Let&rsquo;s play Holocaust,&rdquo; in one of his shows. His dismissal comes ahead of Friday's opening ceremony of the pandemic-delayed Games.
Japan's Olympic chief Seiko Hashimoto said the video ridiculed "painful facts of history". Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga described the comments as "outrageous and unacceptable".
Kobayashi himself has issued a statement responding to his dismissal. He said, entertainment should not make people feel uncomfortable, adding that he understands that his choice of words at that time was wrong, and he regrets it.
The dismissal is the latest in a string of scandals to hit the Games. Earlier this week, a composer whose music is expected to be used at the opening ceremony was forced to resign because of past bullying of his classmates, which he boasted about in magazine interviews.

A two-minute silence was observed across Israel on Thursday to remember those who lost their lives in the Holocaust. In memory of the six million Jews killed by Nazi Germany and its collaborators in World War II, Israel ushered in its Holocaust Remembrance Day. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was joined by President Reuven Rivlin at a ceremony in Jerusalem.
The sombre day was also marked elsewhere in the country, as buses and cars halted on streets and highways as Israelis stepped out of their vehicles and stood with heads bowed.
