A group of armed men shot 29 dogs at a factory in Qatar. In Qatar, attackers kill 29 dogs and injured others over reports they bit a toddler. Doha-based rescue nonprofit PAWS Rescue Qatar said assailants intimidated security officers with firearms before entering the workplace. The facility feeds, neuters, and finds stray dogs. Men shot 29 dogs, including puppies, and injured others.

Qatari officials haven’t commented. In an Instagram post, Sheikha Al Mayasa bint Hamad Al Thani termed the attack “unacceptable.”

The animal rescue centre claimed on Instagram, “Security team was rightfully scared as two of the men were holding guns. The security team tried to stop the men from shooting a group of beautiful friendly neutered dogs, but they realised that they were also putting themselves in danger also,”  Security shot the dogs and puppies. One puppy is struggling for his life at the vet, the rescue shelter said.

People are angry about the shocking event, and many are worried about the gun laws in the country and want to know why people can own guns.

So #qatar preparing itself for World Cup but some monster kill 25 dogs only because his son was bitten. Horrific. How can a country progress if their innocent animals are not safe. Those men should be behind bars. Shame. #qatarkilling #Qatar2022 #PETA

Trigger Warning – violence against animals

The lack of care towards animals in Qatar, especially dogs, is appalling, as is the lack of firearm laws. I knew too many local men who had guns. pic.twitter.com/2RSrobhhB3

Qatar’s law allows gun ownership with an interior ministry licence. Unless in the military or special forces, foreigners rarely get firearms licences.
