Israel just conducted a precise strike on senior officials in Hamas leadership while in the country of Qatar, proving that they can take out Hamas officials whether in Iran or Qatar.

Here’s the news:

Israel has conducted a precise strike in Doha targeting senior Hamas leadership on Tuesday, according to statements from the Israeli Defense Forces and Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“For years, these members of the Hamas leadership have led the terrorist organization’s operations, are directly responsible for the brutal October 7th massacre, and have been orchestrating and managing the war against the State of Israel,” the IDF said in a statement.

Qatar condemned what it said was an Israeli attack on Doha in a statement on social media.

“The State of Qatar condemns in the strongest terms the cowardly Israeli attack targeting the residential headquarters of several members of the Hamas Political Bureau in the Qatari capital, Doha. This criminal attack constitutes a flagrant violation of all international laws and norms and a serious threat to the security and safety of Qataris and residents of Qatar,” a spokesperson for Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs posted on X.

Qatar said its agencies immediately responded to the incident.

The IDF did not provide a location for where the attack was conducted. It’s also unclear whether any target was killed in the strike.

“Prior to the strike, measures were taken in order to mitigate harm to civilians, including the use of precise munitions and additional intelligence,” the IDF said.
