Qatar expressed its strong condemnation of the Iranian targeting that led to a missile striking a civilian vehicle in the Al Bahia area in the United Arab Emirates, which killed one person, describing it as a serious escalation and a blatant violation of the UAE's sovereignty, as well as a direct threat to the security and stability of the region.

In a statement carried by Qatar News Agency (QNA), the Ministry of Foreign Affairs affirmed that Iran's continued opening of new fronts and expanding escalation with neighbouring countries is extremely dangerous.

The ministry also affirmed the State of Qatar's solidarity with the UAE and its support for all measures taken to preserve its sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
