ISTANBUL (AA) – Qatar summoned the Iranian ambassador Saturday to protest a strike on its territory, according to the Foreign Ministry.
The ministry called the incident a flagrant violation of Qatar’s sovereignty and international law.
Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Mohammed bin Abdulaziz Al Khulaifi told the ambassador that any repetition would constitute a reckless act with serious repercussions for relations, particularly as Doha has supported diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions.
The ministry stated that the incident caused panic among civilians and damage to residential areas, urging an immediate return to dialogue and diplomatic channels.
