Five countries cut links with Qatar






     Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen have cut diplomatic ties with Qatar, accusing it of destabilizing the region.

   They also say Qatar is backing militant groups including Islamic State and Al-Qaeda.
Meanwhile, Qatar has called the decision unjustified and with no basis.
   The unprecedented move is being seen as a significant split between powerful Gulf countries, who are also close US allies.
