Qatar condemns IS attack on French church
The state of Qatar strongly condemned as "contrary to all human values" the deadly attack in France which saw a priest killed by followers of the Islamic State group.
"Qatar has expressed its condemnation and denunciation of the armed attack on a church" in France, Doha's foreign ministry said.
"This criminal act is contrary to all human values and principles," a statement added.
Qatar also expressed its "solidarity" with France and expressed its sympathy to the French people.
Tuesday's attack saw two IS "soldiers" storm a church in the Normandy town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray and slit a priest's throat.
The attack, which also saw three other people taken hostage, was later claimed by the militant group.
France has been shaken to the core by a series of terror strikes, and the latest comes less than two weeks after the truck massacre in Nice, which killed 84 people and was also claimed by IS.

Hi Mufti, the reason why is because some other countries are even funding this IS.
horrible, situation is getting out of control... why don't all the countries join together and attack IS held territories and finish them off...
Jovan is perfectly right ............ but that is difficult task Jovan ...........
All the presidents, head of the states and countries even The Pope has condemned all the bombing, killings and act of terrors in the past, but seriously. The world needs more than sympathy and statements.
We all support Qatar in this
