Doha – The State of Qatar expresses its strong condemnation of the Israeli occupations bombing of the Qatari Red Crescent Society building in the besieged Gaza Strip, which resulted in several deaths and injuries.

Parallel to the attack on the Red Crescent, another operation caused damages and destruction of parts of Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani Hospital for Rehabilitation and Prostheses, as a result of the continuous attacks on buildings surrounding the hospital.

Israel has also shamelessly bombed Al-Jalaa tower, which housed a number of media institutions, including Al-Jazeera offices in the Gaza Strip.

The targeting of humanitarian and media institutions is a clear violation of international law, humanitarian norms and values.

The State of Qatar calls on the international community to condemn this sinful act and to exert further efforts to put an end to Israelis continuous crimes in the occupied territories, and to protect civilians, journalists, medical practitioners and humanitarian workers.

Finally, the State of Qatar affirms, in this context, that it will spare no effort in supporting the just Palestinian cause and the brotherly people of Palestine.
