Doha Strike Fallout: DMFI Rebukes Trump as U.N. Condemns, Qatar Mobilizes
Officials say a U.S. warning call came during the operation, not before.
Overview
- Israel carried out a strike in Doha targeting Hamas leaders earlier this week, triggering fast-moving political and diplomatic responses.
- The pro-Israel group Democratic Majority for Israel accused President Donald Trump of betraying Israel by publicly criticizing the operation and possibly tipping off Qatar.
- U.S. and Qatari officials said envoy Steve Witkoff’s warning call occurred while the strike was already underway, disputing claims that it compromised the mission.
- The U.N. Security Council issued a unanimous statement condemning the strike and expressing solidarity with Qatar, with the Trump administration joining the measure.
- Qatar’s prime minister is heading to Washington and convening an emergency Arab summit after saying the attack wrecked ceasefire mediation, as Netanyahu advanced the contentious E1 settlement plan.
