Qatari state television says the country's former ruler, Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad al-Thani, has died.
The channel reported that the 84-year-old former emir died Sunday evening.
He had not held power since 1995, when he was deposed by his son, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, in a bloodless palace coup.
