OIC calls Doha attack a ‘blatant violation of international law’
The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation has condemned the Israeli strikes on the Qatari capital, calling them a “blatant violations of international law, UN Charter and global norms”.
“The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation once again calls on the international community, particularly the UN Security Council, to assume its responsibilities and compel Israel to end its dangerous and ongoing aggression in the region and to respect international law and relevant UN resolutions,” the 57-country bloc said in a statement.
Qatari PM calls the Israeli attack ‘state terrorism’
Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani says the Israeli strikes on Doha can only be interpreted as “state terrorism”.
Sheikh Mohammed says Qatar reserves its right to respond to Israel and will not tolerate any violations to its sovereignty.
He said Qatar will take a comprehensive approach to respond to the Israeli assault and deter future attacks.
The Gulf state is also forming a team under Qatari diplomat Mohammed bin Abdulaziz al-Khulaifi that will take legal actions in response to the Israeli attack.
Qatar calls for regional response to Israel
Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed says Netanyahu is taking the entire region to an irreversible point with his disregard for international laws and norms.
“Today, we have reached a turning point for there to be a response from the entire region against such barbaric conduct,” he said.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani says Israeli PM Netanyahu has been spoiling every attempt to find opportunities for peace. He said that beyond the illegality of the Israeli attack, attempting to kill negotiators in a country leading ceasefire negotiations is unethical and treacherous.
The Qatari PM added that Netanyahu “claims that he is achieving stability in the region, when he is only achieving instability in the region with narcissistic delusions for his personal gains”.
Qatar’s Sheikh Mohammed says Doha has been in touch with friendly countries and will soon announce action to confront the Israeli attack. “Working to violate the sovereignty of nations without any care must not be overlooked and must be confronted by all means,” he said.
Sheikh Mohammed dismisses claims and reports that the Hamas leaders may have survived because of a US tip about the Israeli strikes before they happened. “This was a treacherous attack, 100 percent, it was not known until it happened,” he told reporters.
Qatar says current ceasefire talks may no longer be ‘valid’
Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani says Qatar will continue to work to end Israel’s war on Gaza, but raised doubts about the viability of the most recent talks over the US proposal.
“When it comes to the current talks, I don’t think there is something valid right now after we’ve seen such an attack,” he said.
