The UAE has strongly condemned and denounced the ongoing Israeli violations in the Gaza Strip, particularly the recent targeting of displacement camps in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, which resulted in numerous fatalities and injuries among innocent civilians.
In a statement, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized the critical need for immediate, safe, sustainable, and unimpeded delivery of humanitarian, relief, and medical aid to the Palestinian people. The Ministry also reiterated the necessity for an immediate ceasefire to prevent further loss of life, highlighting the importance of safeguarding civilians and civilian institutions in accordance with international law and treaties.
The UAE urged the international community to intensify efforts to prevent further escalation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and to promote comprehensive and just peace. Qatar's condemnationQatar strongly condemned the horrific attack by Israeli occupation forces on the tents of displaced persons in the Al Mawasi area of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, which led to the martyrdom and injury of hundreds of unarmed civilians, labeling it a shocking and brutal massacre and a continuation of the occupation's crimes against the Palestinian people and humanity.
In a statement carried by Qatar News Agency (QNA), the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed the urgent need for immediate international action to halt this brutal aggression and protect the Palestinian people. The Ministry warned that the Israeli occupation's disregard for Palestinian lives and its attempts to impose a fait accompli, stripping Palestinians of their rights under international law, could undermine efforts to implement the two-state solution, thereby exacerbating the cycle of violence and threatening international peace and security.
The Ministry reaffirmed Qatar's steadfast support for 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.
