The United Arab Emirates has strongly condemned the recent Israeli strike targeting Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar. This attack resulted in the death of a Hamas officer and injuries to others.
The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed its condolences to Qatar and wished a swift recovery for the injured. The UAE described the attack as a blatant violation of Qatar’s sovereignty and aligned with other Gulf countries in condemning the escalation.
Key reactions include:
- Leaders from Saudi Arabia and Jordan contacted Qatar’s Sheikh Tamim to denounce the strike.
- The strike was labeled a cowardly and criminal act that breaches international law.
- Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu confirmed he ordered the strikes following a deadly shooting incident in Jerusalem.
Despite rising tensions, both UAE and Qatar carriers reported no disruption to flight operations, with airports functioning as usual. Qatar’s authorities reassured the public that the situation remains safe and urged citizens to rely on official sources for information.
The targeted Hamas figures are members of the leadership council that assumed control after the previous leader was killed last year. This incident has significantly heightened regional concerns regarding security and diplomatic relations within the Gulf.
