The Israel Defense Forces struck a target in another Arab State, attacking a building in Doha, where members of the Hamas leadership were allegedly located. Benjamin Netanyahu's office confirmed the attack, clarifying that Israel had assumed full responsibility for the operation.
According to Al Hadath, the leader of Hamas in Gaza, the head of the organization's foreign office and three other representatives of the politburo were in the building that was hit. However, members of the Hamas politburo, including the leader of the movement in the Gaza Strip, were able to survive after the Israeli attack in the capital of Qatar, according to Al Jazeera. According to the Jerusalem Post, the US has given Israel the green light to attack Hamas leaders in Qatar. This version is confirmed by the fact that the US Embassy called on American citizens who are in Qatar, go to the shelters.
The first international reaction is already coming to Israel's actions at these moments. Thus, the Jordanian Foreign Ministry said that the country would support any steps by Qatar in response to Israel's actions in order to protect sovereignty. According to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Israel's attack on Qatar is an "extremely dangerous act" and violates the norms of the UN Charter.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres condemned the violation of Qatar's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
"I condemn this blatant violation of Qatar's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Guterres told reporters.
A similar statement was made by the Secretary General of the League of Arab States, calling Israel's strikes on Doha a violation of Qatar's sovereignty.
The United Arab Emirates also condemned the Israeli strike.
"His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, condemned in the strongest terms Israel's blatant and cowardly attack on the fraternal state of Qatar," the UAE Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
