Yemen raps Doha summit failure to take 'decisive' action against Israel

Yemen has strongly criticized the Arab and Islamic leaders for their failure at the Doha summit to take practical action in support of Palestine and against the Israeli regime's crimes, stressing that the occupying regime only understands the language of force.

Yemen’s Foreign Ministry made the remarks in a statement on Tuesday, in response to the “disappointing” results of the Arab-Islamic emergency summit in Qatar, which was convened following Israel's airstrikes against leaders of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas in Doha last week.

The ministry went on to say that the summit did not adequately address the existential threat posed by the Israeli regime to the entire Islamic nation, nor did it take serious steps to compel Israel to adhere to international law and end its aggression and siege against Gaza.

The ministry further noted that Arab and Islamic nations were eagerly awaiting decisive actions at the summit, such as severing diplomatic and trade relations with Israel, implementing comprehensive sanctions, breaking the siege of Gaza, and supporting the resilience of the Palestinian people and their brave fighters. 

Arab-Islamic summit condemns Israel’s attack on Doha as serious threat to regional peace

Leaders of Arab and Islamic countries warn Israel’s recent strikes against Hamas leaders pose a serious threat to regional peace and stability.

“The failure to issue practical and decisive decisions at the summit further emboldens the Zionist regime to continue the genocide against the people of Gaza, and aggression against regional countries,” it added.

The ministry also stressed that experience has shown that the Israeli regime only understands the language of force, and that practical action and resolute stances are necessary to reclaim rights.

The Yemeni Foreign Ministry further reaffirmed the country’s unwavering support for Gaza and its people, pledging to utilize all available means and resources, and make any necessary sacrifices, until the occupiers' aggression and the cruel siege against Gaza come to an end.

On September 9, the Israeli regime launched missiles at a residential area in Doha, targeting Hamas members who were meeting to discuss a US proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza. 

Top Hamas leaders survived the attack. But five members of the Gaza-based resistance group and a Qatari security officer were killed.

The Israeli aggression drew a deluge of criticism from world leaders, regional resistance groups, as well as many international and religious organizations.

Qatar to host Islamic-Arab summit to discuss 'united action' after Israeli strikes

Qatar will soon host an emergency Arab-Islamic summit to discuss the Israeli attack on the Persian Gulf state’s capital city.

On Monday, an emergency meeting of Arab and Islamic states was held in the Qatari capital in response to Israel's airstrike on Hamas leaders in Doha.

Leaders from the 57-member Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the 22-member Arab League attended the Doha summit.

In their final statement, participants condemned Israel’s airstrikes attempting to assassinate Hamas leaders, warning that Israel’s recent attacks on Doha posed a serious threat to regional peace and stability.

The Arab and Islamic leaders also reaffirmed broad support for the Palestinian cause and condemned Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip.

The Doha summit apparently ended with strong words, but no action on the part of Muslim countries.

Doha summit: Iran president warns no country safe from Israeli aggression

President Pezeshkian says the September 9 Israeli strikes on Qatar showed that no Arab or Muslim country is safe from the regime’s acts of aggression.

However, among the attendees was Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian who said the September 9 Israeli strikes on Qatar showed that no Arab or Muslim country is safe from the regime’s acts of aggression.

He called on Muslim countries to isolate Israel, cut off its weapons and funding, and hold its leaders accountable in courts of justice. Pezeshkian, however, said this will be effective via unity.
