Iran accuses Qatar of facilitating US and Israeli attacks
On July 29, 2026, the Islamic Republic of Iran submitted a formal letter to the United Nations Secretary-General and the President of the Security Council, accusing Qatar of permitting the use of its territory and military infrastructure for attacks by the United States and Israel against Iranian soil. The document, circulated as official Security Council paper S/2026/632, serves as a response to previous complaints filed by Doha and clarifies Tehran's stance regarding ongoing regional military operations.
Tehran alleges that since February 28, 2026, when it claims "unprovoked and premeditated" acts of aggression commenced, Qatar and other Persian Gulf nations have made their territory available to facilitate strikes against Iran. Iranian officials assert that these claims are supported by "documented technical data" already transmitted to the UN, with some evidence suggesting direct involvement by regional states. The letter concludes that these actions constitute a violation of sovereignty, as Iran seeks international recognition of its version of events amidst the ongoing conflict.
