Qatar PM Holds Call with Iran’s Araghchi, Urges ‘Immediate Halt’ to Attacks

DOHA: Qatar’s Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al‑Thani spoke by phone with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and called for an “immediate halt” to Iran’s missile and drone attacks on Gulf states, warning that such actions threaten regional stability and Qatar’s security.

The Qatari PM has urged “an immediate halt to these attacks”, according to a statement by Doha’s foreign ministry and has accused Tehran of seeking to “harm its neighbours and drag them into a war that is not theirs”.

Sheikh Mohammed has said Iran had “struck civilian and residential areas within the State of Qatar”, despite Araghchi’s assertion that “the Iranian missile attacks were directed at American interests and did not target the State of Qatar”.
