Doha: Qatar strongly condemned the despicable act perpetrated by a criminal group which burned two Turkish soldiers alive.
“The heinous and savage crime goes against all human principles and values and contravenes religious precepts, said the Foreign Ministry.
In a statement posted today on Qatar News Agency (QNA), the ministry denounced the despicable crime which, it said, aims to spark fear, terrorise and defame the tolerant Islamic values.
The statement reiterated Qatar’s strong solidarity and unwavering support to Turkey, backing all measures undertaken by Ankara following the abominable crime.
The ministry also called on the international community to intensify efforts to combat terrorism in all its forms, and regardless of its sources, until this scourge is eradicated.
The State of Qatar extended heartfelt condolences to the Turkish Government, people and the victims’ bereaved families.
