Qatar has condemned in the strongest terms the brutal massacre committed by the Israeli occupation in Mawasi Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip, which led to the deaths of dozens of people and injuries to many .

Ina statement on Tuesday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed that the continuation of the occupation’s heinous crimes against defenseless civilians, its blatant defiance of international laws and norms, and its seeking of military escalation instead of a political path are an inevitable result of the silence of the international community and the absence of accountability and punishment.

In this regard, the ministry stressed the need for regional and international efforts to work together more than ever to end the aggression on the Gaza Strip immediately, provide protection to the brotherly Palestinian people, and confront attempts to forcibly displace them.

The ministry reiterated Qatar’s firm position on the justice for the Palestinian cause and the legitimate rights of the brotherly Palestinian people, including the establishment of their independent state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
