Qatar's Foreign Ministry rejected Israeli media reports claiming Doha agreed to participate in a military operation against Iran, according to a statement. The denial comes amid ongoing speculation about Gulf states' role in the U.S.-Iran dynamics.
Qatar's Foreign Ministry issued a statement Thursday evening rejecting Israeli media reports that Doha had agreed to take part in a military operation against Iran. The ministry called the reports 'false' and did not elaborate. The denial follows a series of Qatari pushbacks against Israeli media coverage. As The Zioneer reported on June 16, Qatar previously denied funding reconstruction inside Iran while confirming its participation in the Geneva talks between Washington and Tehran. The latest statement underscores Doha's effort to distance itself from any military alignment against Iran, though the specific reports it denies have not been independently verified.
