On Tuesday, Doha held Tehran responsible for an attack on a Qatari tanker while it was transiting the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, calling on Iran to stop threatening 'global energy supplies' in the vital waterway.

In a post on platform X, Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed Al-Ansari said: 'We call on the Islamic Republic of Iran to immediately cease all practices that affect the security of the region or threaten the safety of international navigation, and to stop endangering global energy supplies and the capabilities of the region's countries for narrow calculations. We hold it fully legally responsible for this attack and any resulting damages and repercussions.'
