Arab and Muslim leaders will convene in Doha on Monday to protest recent Israeli airstrikes.

Foreign Affairs Adviser Touhid Hossain is attending the summit, organized by the Government of Qatar. On Sunday, he joined a preparatory meeting of foreign ministers chaired by Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani.

The session was also addressed by OIC Secretary-General Hissein Brahim Taha and Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Aboul Gheit.

The summit follows an Israeli airstrike last Tuesday on a residential building in Doha housing Hamas leaders, which killed five Hamas members and a Qatari security officer.
