In a statement by the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the ministry condemned the assassination of the Israeli occupation forces, Shireen Abu Akleh, Al Jazeera's correspondent near Jenin refugee camp.

Israeli occupation forces are also responsible for shooting Al Jazeera producer Ali Samoudi, who was also covering the same event and is presently getting treatment.

In turn, the Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar for Regional Affairs, Mohammed Al-Khulaifi, said that the occupation revealed the reality of its arbitrary practices in Palestine, "so it proceeded, without hesitation, to assassinate the prominent journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, in a heinous crime and an attack on media freedom." 

On Twitter, he stressed the need for the international community to hold the occupation accountable for assassinating Abu Akleh. 

Earlier, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Lulwa Al-Khater said, via Twitter, that the "Israeli occupation killed Al Jazeera journalist Sherine Abu Aqleh by shooting her in the face while wearing the Press vest and a helmet. She was covering their attack in Jenin refugee camp. This state-sponsored Israeli terrorism must STOP, unconditional support to Israel must END."
