Hamas on Sunday called on Arab and Islamic nations to end what it described
as the Israeli regime’s “state of lawlessness” in defiance of international
law.

In a memorandum sent to the foreign ministers of Arab and Islamic countries
meeting in Qatar, as well as to international organizations, the movement
said the attempted assassination of its negotiating delegation in Doha and
the failure to halt the genocide in Gaza
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/iran-s-larijani-urges-islamic-nations-to-act-over-gaza-crisi>
required a full political and economic boycott of the Israeli occupation,
along with its isolation on regional and international levels.

Hamas stressed the need to work toward isolating “Israel” in proportion to
the crimes being committed by the Israeli occupation against the
Palestinian people. The statement underscored that the occupation must be
compelled to respect international law and meet the Palestinian people’s
legitimate rights to freedom, independence, and return.

Earlier in the day, Arab and Islamic foreign ministers affirmed that
Qatar’s security is “an integral part of Arab and Islamic national
security,” warning that the Israeli attack on Doha represented a breach of
international law and a dangerous escalation threatening Arab, regional,
and global stability.

This comes amid an emergency summit of Arab and Islamic leaders scheduled
for Sunday and Monday in Doha. The meeting is expected to address the
fallout

from
the Israeli occupation's recent attacks on Qatar and its attempt to target
Hamas leaders.
Condemnations futile

Ali Larijani, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, issued
a sharp warning to Muslim governments on Saturday, criticizing what he
described as empty rhetoric from meetings of the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation (OIC) in the face of "Israel’s" continued attacks on
Palestinians.

Larijani said speeches without action amounted to “a new mandate for
aggression in favor of the Zionist entity,” and likened OIC summits to UN
Security Council sessions that end in declarations rather than measures.
“Holding a conference full of speeches with no practical outcome…
practically encourages the occupation to persist in its crimes
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/un-condemns-strikes-on-qatar--stops-short-of-naming--israel>,”
he told reporters in Tehran.

He urged Islamic countries to establish a joint operations room to counter
“the madness of the occupation,” arguing that such coordination could
pressure the backers of the Israeli regime to reconsider their policies
under the guise of “global peace” or “Nobel prizes.”

Concluding his remarks, Larijani told Islamic states, “Because you have
done nothing for the hungry and oppressed in Palestine, at least take a
modest decision to avoid your own ruin.”
UN condemns strikes on Qatar, omits 'Israel'

The United Nations Security Council on Thursday condemned recent airstrikes
on Qatar’s capital, Doha, in a rare move supported by the United States.
However, the statement, approved unanimously by all 15 Council members,
stopped short of naming "Israel", despite it being the perpetrator.

The condemnation follows the recent Israeli aggression targeting Hamas
officials in the Qatari capital, Doha
<https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/israeli-occupation-attacks-hamas-negotiators-in-qatar--bombs>
.

The attack marks a sharp escalation in the region and risks disrupting
ongoing ceasefire negotiations related to the war on Gaza

.

In a statement drafted by Britain and France, the Council expressed strong
concern over the attack, emphasizing respect for Qatar’s sovereignty and
territorial integrity.

“Council members underscored the importance of de-escalation and expressed
their solidarity with Qatar,” the statement read.

Although "Israel" was not mentioned by name, the language and timing
clearly pointed to the airstrike in Doha as the event prompting the
Council’s unified response.
