Qatar's prime minister accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of committing war crimes during the war in Gaza, saying Israel has focused criticism on Doha in an effort to deflect attention from its own conduct in the conflict.
The remarks came during an interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan, in which the Qatari premier addressed accusations leveled against his country amid its role in regional diplomacy surrounding the Gaza war.
The comments add to a series of public exchanges between Qatari and Israeli officials over the course of the war, as Doha has positioned itself as a mediator between Israel and Hamas while facing scrutiny over its ties to the Palestinian group.
Neither the Israeli government nor Netanyahu's office had issued a public response to the remarks at the time of publication.
The interview aired as part of Piers Morgan's broadcast, according to Al Jazeera, though further details of the full exchange were not immediately available.
