Doha: The State of Qatar condemned, in the strongest terms, the horrific attack by Israeli occupation forces targeting the tents of displaced persons in the Al Mawasi area of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, resulting in the martyrdom and injury of hundreds of unarmed civilians, considering it a shocking and brutal massacre and a new chapter in the ongoing series of crimes by the occupation against the Palestinian people and humanity as a whole.

In a statement on Saturday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated that the repeated heinous crimes of the occupation, within the context of its continuous war on Gaza, underscore the urgent need for immediate international action to end this brutal aggression and provide protection for the Palestinian people. The Ministry warned that Israeli occupation’s disregard for Palestinian blood and its repeated attempts to impose a fait accompli and strip Palestinians of their rights guaranteed by international law will undermine international efforts aimed at implementing
the two-state solution, thereby expanding the cycle of violence in the region and threatening international peace and security.

The Ministry reaffirmed the State of Qatar’s steadfast position on the just Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, including the establishment of an independent state on the 1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital.
