Qatar Hosts Emergency Arab-Islamic Summit To Address Israeli Occupation Attack

(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) DOHA, Sept 15 (KUNA) -- Qatar is hosting an Emergency Arab-Islamic Summit on Monday, with the participation of several Arab and Islamic leaders -- including the Representative of His Highness the Amir of Kuwait Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, His Highness the Crown Prince Sheikh Sabah Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah.
The participating leaders will review the agenda, reflecting regional solidarity with Qatar against Israeli occupation's aggression and a unified rejection of actions undermining peace and stability in the region.
The summit will conclude with the adoption of a final communique, followed by a press conference highlighting the key outcomes of the meeting.
Arab and Islamic Foreign Ministers convened a preparatory closed-door session in Doha, chaired by Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammad bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, discussing draft statement on the Israeli occupation's attack.
The Qatari Prime Minister condemned the occupation's airstrike as a flagrant and reckless violation of the sovereignty of a United Nations and Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) member state, and a peace mediator, describing the act as brutal and unjustifiable.
He expressed appreciation for the solidarity shown by Arab, Islamic, and friendly nations, and their full support for Qatar's legal measures to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
He reaffirmed Qatar's continued commitment to peaceful conflict resolution, underlining its ethical and humanitarian obligations and asserting that a just, comprehensive and lasting peace remains a strategic necessity.
OIC Secretary General Hussein Taha described the assault on Qatari sovereignty as a dangerous escalation that threatens regional peace and violates international law and United Nations resolutions.
He called for intensified efforts to hold the occupation accountable for violations against Qatari sovereignty, as well as for war crimes, illegal settlement activity, and organized terror against the Palestinian people.
For his part, Arab League Secretary General Ahmad AbulGheit denounced the strike on Qatar, a nation that has consistently worked for peace and the protection of civilian lives.
Abulgheit affirmed that the emergency summit in Doha sends a powerful message of Arab and Islamic solidarity with Qatar, amid widespread regional and international condemnation of the attack.
The Israeli occupation had launched an airstrike on Doha targeting residential buildings housing senior members of the political bureau of the Palestinian group Hamas, triggering broad condemnation and expressions of support for Qatar. (end)
