In the statement, Qatar stressed it has hosted a Hamas office since 2012 on the behest of the United States and Israel."

The EU has suspended payments to Israel and proposed sanctions targeting "extremist" Israeli ministers after an Israeli strike in Qatar that drew condemnation from China and Russia.

Yemen's Houthi rebels said Israel was striking Sanaa, and Israeli officials said Israel would continue to target enemies everywhere.
