The Israeli navy says it has carried out an airstrike on Hamas’ political headquarters in Qatar. Tv footage from Doha confirmed an enormous cloud of grey smoke rising over the world of Doha the place the bombing came about.
An announcement Tuesday from the Israeli navy (IDF) stated it had carried out the assault in Doha — which has been a key mediator in efforts to finish the conflict in Gaza — together with the Israel’s inside safety company Shin Wager (ISA).
“The IDF and ISA carried out a exact strike focusing on the senior management of the Hamas terrorist group,” the assertion stated Tuesday. “For years, these members of the Hamas management have led the terrorist group’s operations, are immediately answerable for the brutal October seventh bloodbath, and have been orchestrating and managing the conflict towards the State of Israel. Previous to the strike, measures have been taken as a way to mitigate hurt to civilians, together with using exact munitions and extra intelligence.”
The federal government of Qatar has denounced the airstrike, saying it “strongly condemns the cowardly Israeli assault that focused residential buildings housing a number of members of the political bureau of the Hamas motion within the Qatari capital, Doha.” It continued, “This felony assault constitutes a blatant violation of all worldwide legal guidelines and norms, and poses a severe menace to the safety and security of Qataris and residents in Qatar.”
It stated Qatar “won’t tolerate this reckless and irresponsible Israeli conduct, which repeatedly undermines the area’s safety.”
