The State of Qatar strongly condemns the storming of the Kingdom's Cultural Attaché building in the Republic of Sudan by an armed group that vandalized equipment and cameras, seized some of the attaché's property, and disrupted the attaché's systems and servers. Qatar also stresses the need to provide protection for diplomatic missions, prosecute the perpetrators and bring them to justice.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in a statement issued today, reaffirms the stance of the State of Qatar calling for an immediate cessation of the fighting in Sudan, the exercise of maximum restraint, resorting to the voice of reason, giving priority to the public interest, and sparing civilians the consequences of fighting.

It also expresses the State of Qatar's aspiration for all parties to pursue dialogue and peaceful ways to overcome differences.
