"Unilaterally bombing inside Qatar, a sovereign nation and close ally of the United States that is working very hard and bravely taking risks with us to broker peace, does not advance Israel or America's goals. However, eliminating Hamas who have profited off the misery of those living in Gaza is a worthy goal. President Trump immediately directed Special Envoy [Steve] Witkoff to inform the Qataris of the impending attack, which he did."
"What wasn't asked about at today's WH briefing: Did Pres. Trump save Hamas leaders from Israel's attack? If Witkoff told the Qataris the attack was coming, did the Qataris tell Hamas to get out of the building in time? On a day the WH said it was concerned about a criminal who carried out a murder in Charlotte, I sure hope POTUS did not save the lives of murderers in Qatar. (It's unclear now who has been killed. Hamas said Israel didn't get everyone.)"
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned an Israeli unilateral bombing inside Qatar as counterproductive to U.S. and Israeli goals while calling elimination of Hamas a worthy objective. Leavitt said President Trump directed Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to inform Qatari officials of the impending attack and that the president views Qatar as a strong ally and regrets the attack location. Fox News contributor Ari Fleischer questioned whether the White House warning allowed Hamas leaders to escape, asking if Qataris warned Hamas. Hamas claimed its Doha negotiating delegation survived and accused Netanyahu's government of opposing a peace agreement. Casualty details remain unclear.
