Qatari Prime Minister Calls Netanyahu ‘War Criminal,’ Vows to Continue Mediation Efforts

He said Qatar will keep mediating with the United States and Iran despite the strike that killed five Hamas members and a Qatari security officer.

  • Prime Minister Thani labeled Netanyahu a "war criminal" during a recent interview, stating "what's been committed in Gaza is war crimes" while affirming Qatar will continue its mediation role.
  • Qatar's $30 million monthly assistance program for Gaza operated through a mechanism coordinated with the United States, Israel, and the United Nations. Thani rejected claims that funds supported Hamas.
  • Condemning the attacks as a "massacre," Thani revealed that Qatar proposed a temporary ceasefire to release hostages immediately after October 7, though Israeli officials declined to engage.
  • Questioning Netanyahu's interference in United States politics, Thani defended Qatar's university spending, maintaining approximately 95% of expenditures support campuses in Doha rather than influencing curricula.
  • "Iran has been our neighbor and will remain our neighbor forever," Thani stated, noting Qatar received only a brief warning before the United States and Israel struck Iran on March 1.
