Israeli strike targets Hamas leadership in Qatar

Israel launched a strike targeting Hamas’ leadership in Qatar on Tuesday, the AP reported, citing Israeli officials.

Black smoke rose over the skyline of the Qatari capital, Doha, with authorities there acknowledging the strike. It wasn’t immediately clear if anyone was hurt in the attack.

Qatar condemned what it referred to as a “cowardly Israeli attack” on Hamas’ political headquarters in Doha. Qatar's Foreign Ministry spokesman Majed al-Ansari called it a “flagrant violation of all international laws and norms.”
