The Joint Extraordinary Summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Arab League was convened following Israel’s air strike on 9 September 2025 targeting the Hamas negotiation delegation in Doha, the capital of Türkiye. During the attack carried out by Israeli warplanes, the building housing Hamas’s senior leadership was targeted.

As a result of the attack, the son of Khalil al-Hayya, a member of the Hamas Political Bureau, four Hamas members, and one Qatari police officer lost their lives. A total of six people were reported killed. It was announced that senior Hamas officials survived the strike. The attack occurred during ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel, supported by the United States. It was noted that the Hamas delegation was evaluating a U.S. proposal transmitted via Qatar and Egypt at the time of the attack.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a statement on 10 September, issued a new threat against Qatar, saying, “Either expel Hamas leaders or hand them over to justice, otherwise we will do it.” In response to these developments, Qatar called upon the OIC and the Arab League for an extraordinary meeting. With the support of Türkiye, which held the rotating presidency, it was decided that the summit would be held at the level of heads of state in Doha on 15 September.

At Qatar’s invitation, on 15 September 2025, member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Arab League gathered in Doha for the extraordinary summit. The summit was organized with the support of Türkiye, serving as the Chair of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers.

This meeting is the third extraordinary OIC-Arab League summit held since Israel launched its offensive in Gaza on 7 October 2023, later expanding it to other regional countries including Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran.

In preparation for the summit, on 14 September 2025, foreign ministers of Arab and Islamic countries met in Doha and reached consensus on the agenda items. At this preparatory meeting, the attack on Qatar, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and the Palestinian issue were identified as the core topics of the summit.

On 13 September 2025, a preparatory meeting at the level of foreign ministers was held in Doha. During the meeting, leaders worked on draft decisions to be presented at the summit.

On 14 September 2025, OIC Secretary-General Hussein Ibrahim Taha and Arab League Secretary-General Ahmed Abul Gheit made statements. Taha emphasized that Islamic solidarity is essential for establishing a Palestinian state and halting Israeli attacks. He stressed that a resolution to be submitted to the UN General Assembly must revitalize the two-state solution process. Abul Gheit stated that the Doha summit must send a strong message against Israeli aggression, noting that the international community’s silence had emboldened Israel and that attacks on civilians constituted war crimes requiring accountability.

On the same day, Türkiye’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Hakan Fidan also made statements, asserting that Israel’s “expansionist policies” had become the most fundamental problem in the region. Fidan identified two reasons for this policy: Israel’s pursuit of territorial expansion in line with its “Greater Israel” ideal and its attempt to leave regional countries fragmented and weakened.

During the preparatory consultations, Fidan held separate meetings with his counterparts from Qatar, Egypt, Iraq, and Pakistan. In these discussions, it was emphasized that Israel’s attack on Qatar was not only aimed at Doha but also at undermining regional peace.

The main item on the agenda of the Joint Extraordinary Summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the Arab League held in Doha was the air strike carried out by Israel on 9 September 2025 in the capital of Qatar.

The ongoing attacks in Gaza and the dire humanitarian conditions were also key agenda items.

In his opening speech at the summit, Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani stated that his country’s capital had been subjected to a “treacherous and cowardly” attack. According to the Emir, the strike targeted a residence where families of Hamas leaders were present. He emphasized that Israel sought to sabotage the ongoing negotiations. He also described Israel’s efforts to turn the region into its sphere of influence as a “dangerous illusion.” Operations against Gaza were characterized as an “annihilation war,” and it was asserted that Israel aimed to render the region uninhabitable and forcibly displace its population.

President of Palestine Mahmoud Abbas stated in his speech that Israel’s “crimes” must be punished by the international community. Abbas emphasized that the Arab world must respond with a “firm and practical” stance. He argued that security could only be achieved through Israel’s withdrawal to its 1967 borders and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. Abbas also called for an end to the war in Gaza and the cessation of forced displacement practices.

President of Türkiye Recep Tayyip Erdoğan stated in his speech that Israel’s attack on the Hamas negotiation delegation in Qatar had elevated Israel’s “banditry to a new dimension.” Erdoğan underscored that the international public must view this summit as “a manifestation of the Islamic world’s unconditional support for Qatar” and affirmed Türkiye’s solidarity with its “friend and brother ally Qatar.”

Erdoğan described Israel as “a terrorist mindset nourished by chaos and blood, embodied in a state,” and claimed that the Netanyahu government seeks to continue massacres and genocide in Palestine while simultaneously dragging the region into instability.

The President stated that the Islamic world possesses the wisdom and capacity to neutralize Israel’s expansionist ambitions. Erdoğan called for intensified diplomatic efforts to impose pressure on Israel, asserting, “I believe Israel must be economically pressured as well.”

He also noted that defense industry capabilities could be shared with sister countries, emphasizing that “cooperation must be intensified to win the next decade.” In closing, Erdoğan declared that the struggle would continue until an independent Palestinian state is established with its capital in East Jerusalem and based on the 1967 borders.

President of Egypt Abdel Fattah el-Sisi condemned Israel’s “extraterritorial aggression.” Sisi stated that Israel’s security can only be ensured through respect for the sovereignty of other states and adherence to international law. He emphasized that targeting civilians and deliberately starving a population are unacceptable. He further stated that Israel’s actions have gone beyond diplomatic and military logic, crossing red lines.

Prime Minister of Iraq Muhammad Shia al-Sudani proposed the establishment of a collective security mechanism in the Islamic world similar to NATO. Sudani stated that any attack on an Arab or Islamic country must be considered an attack on the entire region. He called for a unified message to be delivered to the United Nations Security Council and suggested that a comprehensive roadmap for a lasting ceasefire could be developed. Sudani stated that Israel’s attack on Qatar violated all humanitarian principles and warned that without a deterrent collective stance, instability would intensify.

He insisted that the response from the summit must be “clear, resolute, and deterrent.” He affirmed that Israel’s expansionist policies in the West Bank have undermined the two-state solution and called for an end to the war in Gaza and the prevention of the forced displacement of Palestinians.

The President stated that the situation in Gaza is the result of Israel’s policies emboldened by impunity and warned that the international community’s weak response has enabled Israel to continue its attacks. Pezeshkian emphasized that Muslim countries must act collectively against these actions, framing his call for unity not only in religious terms but also on the basis of “shared human values.”

Prime Minister of Malaysia Enver Ibrahim argued that mere condemnation and declarations are insufficient and called for the severing of diplomatic relations with Israel and the imposition of heavier sanctions. Deputy President of Indonesia Gibran Rakabuming Raka emphasized that the Palestinian issue concerns not only Palestinians but also the honor of all Islamic countries and the protection of international law.

The joint extraordinary summit of the OIC and the Arab League was called after Israel’s September 9, 2025, airstrike targeting a Hamas negotiation team in Doha, the capital of Qatar. The Israeli warplanes struck a building where key Hamas leaders were located.

The attack resulted in the deaths of six people: the son of Hamas Political Bureau member Khalil al-Hayya, four other Hamas members, and one Qatari police officer.

The Hamas delegation was reportedly evaluating a US proposal that had been relayed via Qatar and Egypt at the time of the attack.

In a statement on September 10, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a new threat against Qatar, saying, "Either you expel the Hamas leaders or hand them over to justice, or we will do it ourselves." Following these developments, Qatar called for an emergency meeting of the OIC and the Arab League.
