Qatar condemns Hamas attack in Doha, urges peace in Gaza, and champions diplomacy.

At the 80th UN General Assembly, Qatar’s Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani reaffirmed his nation’s commitment to peace, justice, and international law, condemning a deadly attack on a Hamas delegation in Doha as an act of state terrorism. He criticized Israel’s actions in Gaza, calling them inconsistent with peace efforts and a threat to global stability, while highlighting Qatar’s mediation role in hostage releases and ceasefire negotiations. Qatar continues to advocate for a two-state solution, humanitarian access, and Palestinian statehood, supported by regional allies like Pakistan and Arab League members. The country also emphasized its broader diplomatic efforts in Africa, Ukraine, and climate change, reinforcing its role in multilateralism and global development.
