"Israel on Tuesday struck Qatar's capital Doha in missile attacks that it said were targeted at senior leaders of Hamas, including negotiators from the Palestinian group who have been engaged in talks aimed at securing a ceasefire in Gaza. Qatar condemned the attack as a violation of international law and of its sovereignty, with multiple countries and blocs also lashing out at Israel over the missile strikes."
"The attack came at a time when Qatar, one of the lead mediators between Israel and the United States on the one hand and Hamas on the other, had been trying to broker a ceasefire in Gaza, where Israeli forces have killed more than 64,600 people since October 2023, when they launched a war on the Palestinian enclave. Here is what we know so far about what happened in Israel's strikes on Tuesday:"
Multiple explosions rocked Doha after Israel fired missiles at a compound in the West Bay Lagoon area believed to host senior Hamas political leaders and ceasefire negotiators. The strikes occurred around 3–4pm local time, with dark smoke visible across the skyline and explosions audible in neighbourhoods and at Al Jazeera's office. Israel confirmed the operation and identified targets as senior Hamas figures. Qatar condemned the strikes as a breach of international law and sovereignty. The attack is the first-ever Israeli strike on Qatar and occurred while Doha was mediating ceasefire talks between Hamas, Israel and the United States.
