❗️Qatar’s emir accuses Israel of genocide, ceasefire violations
Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani on 21 October accused Israel of committing genocide in Gaza and denounced its ongoing violations of the ceasefire agreement.
“What happened in Gaza was genocide,” he said, affirming that the enclave remains an inseparable part of a future unified Palestinian state.
He added that Israel is not only breaching the truce but also accelerating settlement expansion in the occupied West Bank and advancing efforts to Judaise the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, all in defiance of international law.
“The international community must provide protection for the Palestinian people and ensure that perpetrators of genocide do not escape accountability,” Sheikh Tamim said, criticizing the UN for failing to uphold international legitimacy “when it comes to the tragedy of the Palestinians.”
He condemned Israel for attacking “a state that is acting as a mediator,” describing the assault as a violation of sovereignty and “state terrorism.”
