Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt each announced Monday the cutting of diplomatic ties with Qatar, accusing it of supporting terrorism.

The countries made the separate moves in short succession, saying they would withdraw their diplomatic staff from Qatar and cut air and sea traffic to the country.

Saudi Arabia, which leads a coalition of nations fighting in support of Yemen's government, also said Qatar's forces would be withdrawn from that fight.

The Saudi state-owned SPA news agency said Qatar "embraces multiple terrorist and sectarian groups aimed at disturbing stability in the region, including the Muslim Brotherhood, ISIS and al-Qaida, and promotes the message and schemes of these groups through their media constantly."

There was no immediate reaction from Qatar, but in the past it has denied supporting terrorism.

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said he does not expect Monday's actions to have an impact on the fight against terrorism in the region or globally. He urged all of the parties to sit down and address their disagreements and said the U.S. thinks it is important for the members of the Gulf Cooperation Council to remain unified.

沙特阿拉伯、巴林、阿聯(lián)酋和埃及四國星期一分別宣布，斷絕與卡塔爾的外交關系，譴責卡塔爾支持恐怖主義。

上述四國在很短的時間間隔內(nèi)先后做出與卡塔爾的斷交決定，表示他們將從卡塔爾撤回外交人員，并切斷與該國的空中海上交通聯(lián)系。

領導著支持也門政府聯(lián)軍的沙特還表示，卡塔爾部隊將需要退出戰(zhàn)斗。

國營的沙特通訊社說，卡塔爾“接納籠絡多個旨在擾亂該地區(qū)穩(wěn)定的恐怖分子和教派組織，其中包括穆斯林兄弟會、伊斯蘭國和基地組織，并經(jīng)常通過他們的媒體宣揚推動這些組織的信息和計劃”。

卡塔爾并未立即對此做出回應，但是該國過去曾經(jīng)否認支持恐怖主義。

美國國務卿蒂勒森表示，他預計星期一的斷交行動不會對在該地區(qū)乃至全球打擊恐怖主義的斗爭構(gòu)成影響。他敦促各方坐下來解決彼此間的分歧，并表示，美國認為海灣合作委員會成員國保持團結(jié)是非常重要的。
