The Chinese permanent representative to the United Nations strongly decried the Israeli attack on Qatar at an emergency open session of the UN Security Council over the recent situation in the Middle East.

He said that Israel infringed on the territorial sovereignty and national security of Qatar, openly violated international law and the UN Charter and undermined the efforts for peace.

Israel must stop all military acts in the Gaza Strip at once and perform its obligations with respect to international humanitarian law, he demanded.

The Chinese government calls on the member states of the UN Security Council and the international community to make joint efforts to put an end to war in the Gaza Strip and mitigate humanitarian disaster, he stressed.
