The Israeli strike on Doha last week was not an isolated incident. It carried implications that went far beyond Qatar itself, touching directly on the security of the Gulf and the stability of the wider region. The attack, which drew sharp condemnation across the Middle East and internationally, pushed Gulf, Arab and Islamic states to convene urgent summits, underscoring both the scale of the challenge and the need for a united response. Monday’s extraordinary Gulf summit in Doha was the first and most immediate reaction. It underscored a long-standing principle: Gulf security is indivisible.
