Qatar told the UN Security Council that it would not tolerate “reckless” Israeli behaviour, after Israel carried out a strike in Doha aimed at senior Hamas officials. “This Tuesday afternoon … an Israeli attack targeted residential buildings housing several members of the political bureau of Hamas in the Qatari capital, Doha,” Qatar’s mission said in a letter seen by The National to the 15-member body. Qatar said the strike posed “a serious threat to the security and safety of Qataris and residents”, and violated international law.
