Qatar calls for return to diplomacy after US strikes

Nava Freiberg is The Times of Israel's deputy diplomatic correspondent.

Qatar calls for de-escalation and diplomacy and warns of “serious repercussions” in the region after the United States joined Israel’s strikes against Iranian nuclear sites this morning.

Doha “stresses the need to halt all military operations and immediately return to dialogue and diplomatic paths to resolve outstanding issues,” the Qatari Foreign Ministry writes in an Arabic-language post on X.

“The Foreign Ministry warns that the dangerous tension currently prevailing in the region will have serious repercussions at both the regional and international levels,” the post continues.

Qatar also affirms “its full support for all regional and international efforts aimed at resolving disputes and crises through peaceful means, in order to consolidate peace and stability in the region.”
