QatarEnergy said on Monday it would stop its production of liquified natural gas as the Mideast war rages, taking one of the world's top suppliers off the market.

The state-owned firm blamed the war for the decision.

It offered no timeline for restoring its production.

Oil prices have already risen over the war.
