CAIRO, 9th September, 2025 (WAM) -- Al-Azhar Al-Sharif, the Muslim Council of Elders, and the Arab Parliament strongly condemned today's Israeli attack on the State of Qatar, considering it a blatant violation of international law and state sovereignty.

For his part, Mohammed bin Ahmed Al-Yamahi, Speaker for the Arab Parliament, affirmed in a statement this evening the Arab Parliament's full solidarity with Qatar - its leadership, government, and people - calling on the international community and the UN Security Council to shoulder their responsibilities to stop these repeated Israeli attacks, deter them, and safeguard the sovereignty of states and the security of their peoples.
