Qatar calls Nasser Hospital attack 'new episode' among 'heinous' Israeli 'crimes'

Qatar on Monday condemned Israel's double-bombing of Nasser Hospital in Gaza, calling it a "new episode in the ongoing series of heinous crimes committed by the occupation against the brotherly Palestinian people and a blatant violation of international law".

"The occupation's approach in targeting journalists and workers in the humanitarian and medical fields necessitates urgent and decisive international action to provide the necessary protection for civilians and ensure that the perpetrators of these atrocities do not escape accountability," the foreign ministry said in a post on X.

Qatar further called "for global solidarity to end the brutal genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, address the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the enclave, and move forward toward achieving a just and sustainable peace that guarantees the establishment of an independent, fully sovereign Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital".
