According to the White House, the US government was informed by the US military that Israel would attack Islamist Hamas, which “unfortunately” is in part of Doha. Trump then instructed his special envoy Steve Witkoff to inform Qatar about the upcoming attack. At the same time, Leavitt emphasized that the removal of Hamas, which had benefited from the misery of the people in Gaza, was a goal worth striving for.
Qatar contradicted this presentation of events. A US government agent only called in Qatar at the moment when the explosions had already been heard, said Madschid al-Ansari spokesman.
The US President later added to Truth Social in a post on his platform that Witkoff had informed Katar. But it was too late to stop the attack.
Israel, on the other hand, sent further threats to Hamas. “The days when terrorist leaders enjoyed immunity in any place in the world are over,” said Netanyahu. Israel’s enemies would have to know that Jews have no longer been delivered without defenseless since the state of Israel. The Israeli army broadcaster reported that the attack with the code name “Feuer summit” had taken the remaining leadership of the Islamist organization.
The United Nations Security Council deals with the Israeli attacks in Qatar on Wednesday. The meeting requested by Algeria and Pakistan will begin at 3 p.m. (local time, 9:00 p.m. CEST), the AFP news agency learned from diplomatic circles on Tuesday.
