DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) \u2014 The United Arab Emirates summoned Israel\u2019s envoy in the country on Friday to condemn Israel\u2019s attack on Hamas leadership in Qatar<\/a>, increasing pressure on the country as Qatar\u2019s top diplomat visits Washington. <\/p>\n

The meeting Friday saw Emirati Minister of State for International Cooperation Reem bint Ebrahim al-Hashimy \u201cdenounce the blatant and cowardly Israeli attack\u201d on Qatar, the UAE said. She called the assault \u201can irresponsible escalation that threatens regional and international peace and security.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe continuation of such hostile and provocative rhetoric undermines prospects for stability and pushes the region towards extremely dangerous trajectories, and solidifies a situation that is unacceptable and cannot be overlooked,\u201d the statement added.<\/p>\n

Israeli media reported on the meeting, but there was no immediate readout from the Israeli government. Al-Hashimy spoke to David Ohad Horsandi, the deputy head of the Israeli mission in the country. It marks a rare moment for the UAE to summon an Israeli diplomat after reaching a diplomatic recognition deal with Israel five years ago<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The summoning comes ahead of an emergency meeting of Arab and Islamic nations next week in Qatar over the attack. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Qatar\u2019s prime minister was expected to meet with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington after earlier addressing the United Nations Security Council<\/a>. Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, who also serves as Qatar\u2019s foreign minister, said Thursday at the meeting that \u201cIsrael is trying to rearrange the region by force.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) \u2014 The United Arab Emirates summoned Israel\u2019s envoy in the country on Friday…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6293,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[120,12525,12132,122,51,85,9151,46,1984,11741,7316,43,238,1823,6804,79,12527,12131,12526,126],"class_list":["post-11792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-2024-2025-mideast-wars","tag-david-ohad-horsandi","tag-district-of-columbia","tag-general-news","tag-hamas","tag-il","tag-islam","tag-israel","tag-israel-government","tag-marco-rubio","tag-mohammed-bin-rashid-al-maktoum","tag-news","tag-politics","tag-qatar","tag-qatar-government","tag-united-arab-emirates","tag-united-arab-emirates-government","tag-united-states-government","tag-washington-news","tag-world-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11792\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6293"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
