00:00Katar jest describing multiple Iranian missile attacks on Saturday
00:03as a flagrant violation of its national sovereignty
00:06and an unacceptable escalation that threatens regional security.
00:10Air defenses here in Doha intercepted several waves of strikes throughout the day.
00:14Residents reported hearing loud blasts as interceptors lit up the sky.
00:18The attacks came after coordinated U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran early Saturday morning.
00:23Tehran had warned its response would be crushing
00:26and soon after explosions were heard across parts of the Gulf.
00:30Katar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the country has long been among the strongest advocates for dialogue with Iran
00:35but it says these attacks, quote, cannot be accepted under any pretext or justification.
00:40Doha is now calling for an immediate halt to any further escalation
00:44urging all sides to return to the negotiating table
00:47and warning that without diplomacy the region risks sliding into an even wider conflict.
00:52Abdelhalim, Euronews, Doha.
