A new video surfaced on Twitter, showing a mystery woman gently hugging Abu Dhabi Crown Prince, Shaikh Mohammed Bin Zayed, and kissing him on the cheek at the end of the clip.
The woman, who was wearing abaya and hijab, was heard praising the Shaikh saying: "Shaikh Mohammed Bin Zayed is an honor to Bin Nabbah family, and the biggest honor is that you are here with us".

According to Watan Serb news website, it is believed that the video was posted by a Qatari user, who blasted Crown Prince for his actions, in addition to mocking the ruler though a series of ironic nicknames.
It is still unknown when and where the video was taken. The full context of the video is unclear. It could have been a family occasion between Shaikh Mohammed and the woman. The video was shared from a Qatari point of view, and is clearly intended to embarrass the UAE.
Replies to the tweet were not all different from the publisher's opinion, for example, retired Jordanian colonel Alaa Anaswah wrote "very embarrassing," while tweep Khalaf Aal Barqash said "this is not so strange of them."
