Qatar foreign ministry condemns Israel's ‘heinous massacre’ 

The foreign ministry released a statement condemning the "massacre" in northern Gaza, where Israeli forces fired upon Palestinians waiting for aid, leaving more than 100 dead.

It further called on the international community to protect Palestinians and work to put an end to the war.

“Qatar condemns in the strongest terms the heinous massacre committed by the Israeli occupation, against defenseless civilians who were waiting for humanitarian aid to arrive in Gaza, resulting in the death and injury of dozens of people,” the statement said.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stresses that the continuation of the occupation’s brutal crimes, as part of its brutal war on the Gaza Strip, proves day after day the pressing need for urgent international action to immediately end this unprecedented aggression in recent history.”
