Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani made the statement Sunday during a pledging conference for the crisis. He posted a clip of his comments on Twitter.
Sheikh Tamim said that strengthening national unity was needed in Lebanon after the blast.
He also said unifying and strengthening the government and society's response, as well as providing international aid, also was important.
