RIYADH, Nov. 23 (Xinhua) -- The Saudi-led Arab countries that boycott Qatar added on Thursday two organizations and 11 individuals to their list of terrorists, Saudi Press Agency reported.
The two organizations are the International Islamic Council, known as Massaa, and the World Union of Muslim Scholars.
The quartet said that the two listed groups are terrorist organizations who support terrorism through the exploitation of Islamic discourse as a cover to facilitate various terrorist activities.
The individuals had also carried out various terrorist acts while receiving direct support from Qatar, including providing them with passports and assigning them to Qatari institutions to facilitate their movement, according to the Arab alliance.
Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Egypt severed political and commercial ties with Qatar last summer, accusing Qatar of supporting terrorism and interfering in their internal affairs. Qatar strong denied the charges.
