A spokesperson for the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Majid Al-Ansari, stated that Israel targeted residential buildings housing members of the Hamas political bureau.
"This brutal attack is a blatant violation of international law and norms and poses a serious threat to the safety of Qatari citizens and residents living there," the ministry said in a statement.
The Qatari government strongly condemned this practice and stated its complete intolerance of Israel's "careless steps" that are destabilizing security in the region and any actions directed against Qatar's security and independence. According to official information, an investigation is being conducted at a high level, and additional details will be announced in the coming days.
Hamas sources reported via Al-Jazeera that all officials who attended a meeting in Doha discussing a peace proposal survived an Israeli assassination attempt. According to reports, the strikes were aimed at destroying the group discussing the deal proposed by Trump.
The Israeli government took full responsibility for the operation: "The strike against high-ranking Hamas leaders was an independent Israeli operation. "We initiated it, we conducted it, and we are fully responsible for it," the Prime Minister's office said in a statement.
At the same time, the US Embassy in Doha announced that it has strengthened security procedures in its buildings.
Recall that on the afternoon of September 9, several loud explosions were heard in the capital of Qatar. According to reports by journalist Barak Ravid, citing Israeli officials, these explosions were carried out as an assassination attempt on Hamas leaders.
Thus, the Israeli Air Force announced that it had delivered a precise strike on the Hamas leadership in Doha. This event further exacerbates tensions in the Middle East and seriously complicates the political and military situation in the region.
