Saturday, the first baby from the Israeli Occupation was born in Dubai.

Mia Sztulman Starosta was born Aug. 14 at around 2pm via C-section at the Mediclinic City Hospital, Dubai. Mia’s Israeli Occupation passport will be issued in Dubai.

Mia’s father, Ilan Sztulman Starosta Lembert, head of mission at the newly opened Consulate of the Israeli Occupation in Dubai, which was inaugurated recently by the Israeli Occupation Forign Minister Yair Lapid, said “I chose to serve in the UAE and have my baby delivered in Dubai. I had to be part of a historic moment.”

“I have been in Dubai for a few months now. My wife Jaqueline Starosta Lembert is the economic advisor for the consulate. Both mother and daughter are doing fine,” he told the Gulf News.

In September 2020, the UAE signed an agreement to normalize relations with the Israeli Occupation.
