UAE's Ministry of Education has issued a statement regarding a bullying video recorded in a school classroom.
According to the statement issued on Thursday, the clips - showing a boy getting bullied by some boys in a school classroom in UAE - are old.
The statement added that the conduct of the students was unacceptable, violated school regulations and deserved to be punished.
The ministry had taken notice of the video and took action against the bullies after investigation.

Earlier this week, Dubai Police visited a young Emirati boy, who was bullied on a school bus.
In a humanitarian gesture to support the children rights in the country, a delegation from Dubai Police Committee headed by Mona Al Ameri, Head of the Esaad Committee, and Lt. Col. Masoud Al Hamadi, Vice Chairman of the committee, visited the boy who was bullied in a Sharjah school bus this week. The delegation visited the boy's house to make sure he was fine and to provide him and his family with moral support.
The case came to light after a video of the incident was posted on social media. Action has been taken against the students involved in the bullying.
