SOCHI, September 11. /TASS/. Israel’s attack on Doha is not only a clear act of aggression against Qatar, but a violation of its sovereignty, said Abdullah al-Yahya, Foreign Affairs Minister of Kuwait, the current chairman of the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Persian Gulf (GCC).

"The Israeli strike on Doha is a blatant act of aggression and violation of Qatar's sovereignty," he told a plenary session of the Russia-GCC Strategic Dialogue. "Aggression against one Council country is aggression against all GCC member states." This strike, al-Yahya added, "increases tensions in the region and disrupts Qatar's efforts to stabilize the situation in the Middle East."
