On July 23, 2018, the ICJ issued its Order on provisional measures requiring that (1) the UAE allows mixed families be reunited, (2) Qatari students affected by the measures be given the opportunity to complete their education in the UAE or obtain their educational records if they wish to continue their studies elsewhere, and (3) Qataris be allowed access to tribunals and other judicial institutions in the UAE.
