Trump Criticizes Israeli Air Strike in Qatar
In a bold move that has sparked international backlash, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu defended his country’s air strike in Qatar targeting senior Hamas leaders responsible for the recent attack on Israel. The strike, which resulted in the death of five Hamas members, was condemned by Qatar as a cowardly act and a violation of international law.
US President Donald Trump, while expressing desire for the safe return of hostages, expressed his displeasure with the situation, stating that he is “not thrilled” about the Israeli strike in Qatar.
Hamas, who was in the midst of ceasefire negotiations, denounced the attack as a heinous crime and accused Israel of deliberately sabotaging peace efforts. The strike, conducted with precision by Israeli forces, targeted key Hamas leaders and resulted in multiple casualties.
International leaders, including UN Secretary General António Guterres, French President Emmanuel Macron, and UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, have condemned the strike and called for a ceasefire in Gaza. The Pope also weighed in, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.
