West Asia conflict: Qatar on Wednesday condemned attacks on an Iranian facility located on the Gulf coast; this facility is linked to a massive gas field that it shares with Qatar.
“Israel’s targeting of facilities linked to Iran’s South Pars gas field, which represents an extension of Qatar’s North Field, is a dangerous and irresponsible step amid the current military escalation in the region,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari wrote on X.
“Targeting energy infrastructure constitutes a threat to global energy security, to the peoples of the region, and to its environment.”
“We reiterate, as we have repeatedly emphasized, the necessity of avoiding the targeting of vital facilities. We call on all parties to exercise restraint, adhere to international law, & work toward de-escalation in a manner that preserves the security & stability of the region,” he added.
