His Excellency stressed the State of Qatar’s categorical rejection of the repeated crimes of the Israeli occupation forces by targeting civilian objects, including hospitals, schools, and population centers in the Gaza Strip, considering it a perilous escalation that portends dire consequences for the security and stability of the region.
