Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi discussed the latest regional developments during a phone call on Wednesday, with both sides emphasizing the importance of preventing further escalation.

According to a statement issued by the Iranian Foreign Ministry, the two ministers reviewed developments across the region, with particular focus on the situation in the Strait of Hormuz.

The ministry said the two officials stressed the importance of using diplomatic channels to address regional challenges and underscored the need to maintain communication and coordination to prevent further tensions.

The conversation took place amid heightened instability following recent exchanges between the United States and Iran after attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

One of the vessels targeted was reported to be a Qatari tanker, and the Qatari government has held Iran responsible for the attack.

The Iranian Foreign Ministry did not indicate that the two ministers had reached any specific agreements but said both sides reaffirmed the importance of diplomacy and continued dialogue in addressing the ongoing crisis.
