DOHA: Qatar has condemned in the strongest terms the bombing of the Israeli occupation forces that targeted the municipality of Rafah, its invasion of the land crossing and the threat of displacing citizens from shelter and housing centres, calling for urgent international action to prevent the invasion of the city and the commission of the crime of genocide, and to provide full protection for civilians by international law and international humanitarian law.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs warned, in a statement on Wednesday, that forcing civilians to forcibly displace the city, which has become a final refuge for hundreds of thousands of displaced people inside the Gaza Strip, represents a serious violation of international laws, and would double the worsening humanitarian crisis in the besieged Strip.
The ministry reiterated Qatar's firm position on the justice of the Palestinian issue, the legitimate rights of thePalestinian people, and the establishment of its independent state on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
