The State of Qatar condemns in the strongest terms the Israeli shelling in the vicinity of Jordan Field Hospital in Gaza, which led to the injury of seven of its staff while they were trying to help Palestinian citizens who were injured during an Israeli shelling.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stresses that this condemned crime represents a new episode in the series of Israeli crimes targeting hospitals and civilian facilities, and a flagrant violation of international laws and agreements, especially the Fourth Geneva Convention.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses Qatar’s full solidarity with the brotherly Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in all the political and legal steps it takes to deal with this brutal crime.
