Qatar “strongly condemns” Israel’s attack on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling it “an uncalculated measure that will have very dire repercussions”.
Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari has held a press conference in Doha addressing the ongoing Israel-Iran hostilities.
The attack comes at a time when Iran was “progressing in a positive diplomatic course” with Washington, a negotiation many regional countries were engaged in, al-Ansari said.
Qatar remains involved in mediation with the United States and “believes there is an American desire for an agreement”.
“We will continue to work for a ceasefire between the warring parties – Israel and Iran,” he said.
The condemnation came after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) claimed its missile strikes in Israel hit a military intelligence centre and a Mossad operations planning centre.
Israel earlier reported described a missile impact in the central coastal city of Herzliya as targeting a sensitive site – often code for a military or strategic target.
