(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Qatar has strongly condemned attempts to target Turkiye with a ballistic missile and an airport in Azerbaijan using Iranian drones. In a statement Thursday, Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the incidents as a "dangerous escalation" and a "blatant violation of state sovereignty", warning that they threaten regional security and stability.

The ministry said the attacks were part of a series of "reckless" actions by Iran, adding that Iran's continued opening of new fronts and expansion of tensions with neighbouring countries represents a serious risk to the stability of the region.

Qatar called on Iran to immediately stop "irresponsible policies that undermine regional security", advising it to prioritise the interests of the region's people and adhere to the principles of good neighbourliness and international law.

The statement also reaffirmed Qatar's full solidarity with Turkiye and Azerbaijan, and its support for measures taken by both countries to safeguard their sovereignty, security and territorial integrity.
