Qatar Alert: Egypt Today daily update of Doha's crisis

CAIRO - 4 August 2017: Qatar’s relations with several Arab states have been strained since May 24 over a leaked statement attributed to Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad, criticizing Gulf foreign policy with Iran, describing it as “unwise”.

Qatari Emir’s remarks against Egypt, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) prompted the major Arab powers to adopt urgent and strict measures towards Doha.

The Qatari crisis was escalated when the Arab quartet along with Yemen and Libya announced a coordinated diplomatic break with Qatar. They also closed their airspace and seaports for Qatari transportation.
