Kinshasa: The Democratic Republic of the Congo condemned the Israeli attack that targeted residential buildings housing several members of Hamas movement in Doha.
In a statement carried by the Congolese News Agency (ACP), the government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo expressed deep concern over the Israeli attack on Doha, adding that this constitutes a violation of the sovereignty of the State of Qatar and threatens to worsen an already fragile regional situation.
The Democratic Republic of the Congo affirms its solidarity with Qatar, recognizing its historic role as a mediator and advocate for dialogue and peace, the statement said. Given the complexity of the current crisis, it insists on the need to prioritize de-escalation, respect for international law, and the protection of civilians, it added.
The Congolese government called on all parties to refrain from any actions that could undermine mediation efforts and to work collectively toward achieving a permanent ceasefire and a just and lasting peace in the Middle East.
