The State of Qatar condemned in the strongest terms Iran's renewed attacks on Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait, including the targeting of the Kuwaiti tanker "Kivan" while it was crossing the Strait of Hormuz.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement today that these attacks are a flagrant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of these countries, a serious threat to the safety of navigation and global energy supplies, and a blatant breach of international law, the United Nations Charter, and the principles of good neighborliness.

It added that the continuation of these attacks represents a dangerous escalation that would complicate efforts to contain tension and undermine political and diplomatic endeavors aimed at achieving security and stability in the region.

It stressed the need for an immediate and complete cessation of all military actions and attacks that threaten the security and stability of the region, to refrain from anything that could widen the scope of escalation, to seriously return to the path of dialogue and negotiations, and to adhere to the understandings reached through diplomatic efforts.

The ministry renewed the State of Qatar's full solidarity with the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Kingdom of Bahrain, and the State of Kuwait, and its support for all measures they take to preserve their sovereignty and security.
