The timer of the Israeli attack in Doha was the timing of the US warning. While the White House claims that Qatar informed in time, Doha is sharply refused that the warning came only during the attack.
US President Donald Trump described Tuesday’s Israeli attack on Hamas in Doha, Qatar as a “unfortunate incident” that did not contribute to peace in the region. At the same time, the White House confirmed the previous claims of Israel that he informed Washington in advance about the planned attack. The US allegedly also handed over to Qatar in time, which Dauha denies. According to the AP and AFP report, TASR reports this.
White House: An attack in Doha does not help Israel’s goal or America
White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said that in response to the planned Israeli air attacks, Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff Cataru was a warning. “The statements that circulate that Qatar was informed about the attack in advance are false. The call from the American representative came at a time when a blast was an explosion caused by the Israeli attack,” wrote a spokesman for the Qatar Foreign Ministry on the X platform.
According to Leavitt’s Trump, he disagreed with the Israeli attack. Although the elimination of Hamas is, according to the White House chief a “respectable goal”, an attack in the Qatar metropolis of Doha “does not help Israel or America”. “The President considers Qatar to be a strong ally and a friend of the United States and is very dissatisfied with the place of this attack,” Leavitt added.
Hamas’s leadership survived
White House spokeswoman also announced that after the incident, US President and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke and “very clearly expressed his thoughts and concerns”.
According to Reuters, Trump also spoke with Qatar Emir Tami Tami Bin Hamad Oál Sánie, who assured that “something like this will not be repeated in their territory”.
Hamas’s management Tuesday’s Israeli attack in Doha, according to one of the representatives of the movement, survived. Overall, however, the incident claimed five dead members, says The Times of Israel, referring to an official statement. The Qatar Ministry of the Interior announced that one of its security workers died in the incident.
