On the same day, the Arab Parliament condemned in a statement, "in the strongest terms, the aggressive attacks launched by the Israeli occupation entity against the State of Qatar," stressing that this treacherous attack represents a flagrant and unacceptable violation of Qatari sovereignty and a blatant breach of the United Nations Charter and international laws and norms.

Arab Solidarity Communications

Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani received phone calls from ministers from several Arab countries expressing their solidarity with Qatar and their strong condemnation of the Israeli attack that targeted the residential headquarters of several Hamas leaders, according to a report by the Qatar News Agency on Wednesday.

The calls came from Jordanian Prime Minister Jaafar Hassan, his Lebanese counterpart Nawaf Salam, Saudi Foreign and Defense Ministers Faisal bin Farhan and Khalid bin Salman, as well as the foreign ministers of the United Arab Emirates Abdullah bin Zayed, the Sultanate of Oman Badr Al-Busaidi, Egypt Badr Abdel Ati, and Lebanon Youssef Raji.

Arab officials affirmed their solidarity with Qatar and their strong condemnation of the blatant Israeli attack, calling it "a criminal act and a flagrant violation of all international laws and norms, and a threat to the security of the State of Qatar and the countries of the region."

The attack on Qatar, the first of its kind against Doha and a Gulf state, came despite the country's mediation role, alongside Egypt and under US supervision, in indirect negotiations between Hamas and Israel aimed at reaching a prisoner exchange and ceasefire agreement.

With its recent attack on Qatar, Israel has expanded its regional aggression. In June, it launched an attack on Iran, and for nearly two years, it has been committing genocide in Gaza, carrying out attacks and settlement operations in the occupied West Bank, and conducting airstrikes on Lebanon, Syria, and Yemen.
