Qatar holds Iran legally responsible for attacks

Iran today attacked not just Qatar but also Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan and the UAE.

Now, Iran says it targeted US military assets across all of those countries – something that has not been officially confirmed by their governments.

In the last few hours, Oman has released a statement saying that it has summoned the Iranian ambassador to protest against the attacks.

There has also been a statement from Qatar’s Foreign Ministry calling the attacks on the country a flagrant violation of its sovereignty and also a breach of international law.

The ministry went on to say in the statement that the continuation of these aggressions represents a dangerous escalation that will complicate efforts aimed at containing tensions.

It also said Qatar holds Iran legally responsible for the aggression and anything that results as a result of it.
