Qatar renewed its call on Saturday for ending the Israeli occupation and withdrawing from the occupied Syrian Golan to the June 4, 1967 lines, in accordance with relevant UN resolutions. The Qatar News Agency (QNA) confirmed that Mohammed Hassan Al-Amadi, Third Secretary of Qatar鈥檚 Permanent Mission to the UN, emphasized in a statement delivered at the meetings of the Second Committee of the UN General Assembly during its eighty-first session in New York, the right of Syrians in the occupied Syrian Golan to their natural resources.

Qatar also reiterated its supportive stance toward the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, highlighting the importance of consolidating the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, ensuring the delivery of humanitarian aid, restoring basic services and civilian infrastructure, and creating the necessary conditions for early recovery and reconstruction. It also stressed the importance of continuing support for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), due to its role in providing humanitarian, educational, health, and developmental services to Palestinians.
For his part, Qatar鈥檚 Permanent Representative to the UN, Aliya Ahmed bin Saif Al Thani, confirmed in a statement on Friday during an open debate of the Security Council on the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian question, Qatar鈥檚 firm rejection of any measures aimed at expelling or forcibly displacing the Palestinian people from their homeland.
