Hello and welcome to this live blog. Here we will keep you informed of the latest developments of the conflict in the Middle East.
Now that we enter the night in the Netherlands, we put this live blog on a lower level. You can read all developments around the Israeli attack in Doha below. Have a nice evening!
Qatar continues to mediate between Israel and Hamas, which says Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thhani at a press conference. Together with Egypt, the country is a mediator between Israel and the US on one side and Hamas to the other. According to the prime minister, nothing can cause the country to stop mediating because it is part of the Qatarese identity.
Earlier, Israeli media wrote that Qatar would withdraw as a mediator.
Trump responds to Israeli attack The American president is not happy with the Israeli attack. For example, he regrets the location of the bombing and would not benefit both Israel and the US. “This was a decision by Prime Minister Netanyahu, this was not my decision,” he writes on Truth Social.
He does say that the “unfortunate incident” can be a way to peace between Israel and Hamas. He does not clarify how that is exactly.
Furthermore, Trump commissioned the American foreign minister Marco Rubio to work on an agreement for a defense cooperation with Qatar.
The Qatarese Prime Minister also says that the US called ten minutes after the attack. Earlier, Qatar said in a statement that the US was called when explosions were heard in Doha. Trump had ordered Qatar to inform about the Israeli attack.
Air defense system Recognized Weapons Israel Not the Qatarese Prime Minister says that Israel used weapons that could not recognize the air defense system. According to him, Israel would also like to “sabotage” the peace negotiations with the “treacherous” attack.
The Netherlands condemns Israeli attack in Doha Nederland condemns the Israeli air raid in Doha. This is what foreign minister David van Weel (VVD) writes on X in response to the attack. “The sovereignty of states must be respected,” says the minister. He adds: “Moreover, the attack does not help to bring a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas closer.”
A nu.nl reader who is in Doha has also received the emergency notification of the American embassy earlier today. It came a few moments after the attack.
Qatar speaks of ‘serious escalation’ and starts research Qatar tells the UN Security Council that sees the Israeli attack as a “serious escalation”. “We do not tolerate this reckless Israeli behavior and the disruption of regional safety.” The country will start a study “at the highest level”. More details about this will be announced later.
EU responds to attack in Doha According to the EU, the attack is contrary to international law and “the territorial integrity of Qatar”. Israel also risks further escalation and violence in the region, is in a statement.
The Dutch embassy in Qatar calls on Dutch people in the country to stay aware of (local) media in Golden and to stay informed of the current situation. In a message, the embassy says that it is unclear whether there will be more attacks. People must also contact the local authorities, their hotel or travel company on the spot. “Let your family and/or friends know how you are doing,” says the embassy.
Qatar would withdraw as a mediator that several Israeli media report. Together with Egypt, the country was a mediator between Israel and the US on one side and Hamas at the other. “They have done their stinking best, and now Qatar is being put in its shirt internationally, because Israel believes that the Qatarese national borders can set aside,” says Middle East expert Peter Malcontent to Nu.nl. You can read more background and interpretation about the Israeli attack on Doha in this article.

NU.nl-Buitenland reporter Matthijs Le Loux : The White House confirms reporting from several international media that it had been informed in advance by Israel. This does not contribute to the credibility of Trump’s regret to Qatar.
As the tense relationship between Netanyahu and Trumps predecessor Joe Biden showed, Israel does not always do what his greatest ally wants. At the same time, it is clear that only the US can whistle Israeli prime minister in such a situation: Israel is highly dependent on American support. If the US really makes a breaking point of a diplomatic disagreement, then there is little chance that Tel Aviv will easily ignore it.
Israeli media report that the US was not only aware, but Israel explicitly gave permission for the attack in Qatar. If that is not true, the American approval was at least implicit: the White House did not use his muscles to avert the attack.
Message from Witkoff came in during the Qatarese Ministry of Foreign Affairs says that the American warning for the attack came in when explosions were heard in Doha. Earlier Qatar denied that the special American envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, had informed the country.
Furthermore, Hamas says that the attacks of the delegation that is responsible for negotiations on a cease-fire shows that Netanyahu “does not want to reach an agreement”. He and his government “deliberately try to thwart all international efforts, taking no account of the lives of their prisoners in the resistance (the Israeli hostages in Gaza, ed.), The sovereignty of states and the safety and stability of the region.”
Hamas shares the identity of five dead. Besides the son and an important employee of Hamas leader Khalil Al-Hayya indeed still three employees of his security. These are the names in a row:
Netanyahu (center) and the Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz (first left) were seen together in a command center in Israel.
After attack with Qatar and Israel Trump, Trump spoke with both Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Leader of Qatar after the attack. Netanyahu would have said that he wants to make peace with Hamas quickly.
Trump promised to the Qatarese leader that such an attack will no longer occur on his territory.
US would inform Qatar of attack The White House confirms in a statement that it was informed of the attack this morning. Steve Witkoff, the American special envoy for the Middle East, should have informed Qatar of the Israeli attack.
Furthermore, the White House says that hitting Hamas is a “worthy goal”. The US does feel bad about the location of the bombing.
The Israeli attack on Doha can count on substantial international criticism from Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Egypt, among others. According to the president of Lebanon, Joseph Aoun, Israel deliberately sabotages “all attempts to achieve stability in the region”. You can read more comments in this article.
Hamas: attack changes requirements in Gaza does not say in a statement, Hamas says that the Israeli attack on the negotiators of the Hamas delegation will not change the demands for a cease-fire in Gaza. Hamas wants, among other things, that Israeli troops withdraw from the Gaza Strip.
Furthermore, the militant movement says that in addition to Israel, they also hold the US responsible for the attack. A senior official of the White House previously told CNN that they had been informed in advance.
An ambulance is en route to the site of the Israeli attack. According to Hamas, there may have been five deaths. Earlier, the death of the son and an important employee of Hamas leader Khalil Al-Hayya was announced. In addition, three bodyguards would have been missing.
Member of Qatarese security forces killed by attack A member of the Safety forces of Qatar died in the Israeli attack. Others would have been injured, reports Reuters news agency based on a statement from the Ministry of the Interior of Qatar.
Netanyahu: “Terrorist leaders no longer inviolable” During a television speech, the Israeli Prime Minister stated that “the days in which leaders of terror groups were still inviolable”. “I will not let that immunity continue.”
Son of Hamas Koppuk Khalil Al-Hayya killed at Israeli attack that reports an officer of Hamas to news channel Al Jazeera . Al-Hayya would have survived the attack itself. One of his most important assistants was also killed.
Khalil Al-Hayya is considered one of the most important leaders within Hamas. His influence reportedly increased after the death of the former Hamas leaders Ismael Haniyeh and Yahya Sinwar, in July and October last year. According to Reuters news agency, he is part of the five -member leadership council of the militant movement, which has been die since Sinwar’s management. Al-Hayya plays a key role in the negotiations with Israel and is seen as the most influential figure of the movement abroad.
The United Kingdom criticizes Israeli attack A spokesperson for Prime Minister Keir Starmer tells journalists that he does not want “further escalation of violence in the region”. That would only increase the “risk of further destabilization”.
Netanyahu ordered DOHA’s attack after attack in Jerusalem The Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu had the Israeli army prepared the attack after the shooting in the Israeli city of Jerusalem in which six people died yesterday, which is in a shared statement with defense minister Israel Katz.
Hamas demanded that shooting on.netanyahu earlier today that he gave the task for the attack around noon (Israeli times). According to Netanyahu there was an ‘operational possibility’. The Israeli Prime Minister claims that the attack is “completely justified”.
Two shooters killed six people waiting for the bus in Jerusalem on Monday. Twelve others were injured.
American warning for citizens in Doha lifted the American embassy in Qatar has withdrawn the advice for Americans to hide. That warning came a few moments after the Israeli attack on Doha.
Qatar also reported earlier that the danger seemed to have passed.
Khalil Al-Hayya would have been one of the targets of the Israeli attack. He is reportedly the most important negotiator on behalf of the Hamas delegation.
Source Witte Huis also says that the US of attack “we have been informed in advance,” a high official in the White House told CNN, among others. The same was previously reported by Israeli sources. A source says CBS News, however, that the warning would only have been issued briefly in advance. Two other sources tell CBS that the US and Israel have not discussed the attack of the attack. The US has not yet officially responded to the Israeli bombing on a friendly country. Just like Israel, Qatar is an ally of the United States. The largest American military base in the region is in Qatar.
Israel emphasizes that the attack worked independently.
‘Relationships in the Middle East are not getting better’ an agreement between Israel and Hamas already seemed far away, and the attack on Hamas headpieces in Doha seems to bring a file not closer. “This has two important consequences,” says Peter Malcontent, Middle East expert at Utrecht University, to Nu.nl about the Israeli attack.
“In the first place, it brings out a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. It will not encourage Hamas to be flexible in the negotiations. Now it was already the question of whether those negotiations would run out, so the second consequence is perhaps even more important: the relationships in the Middle East are not getting any better.”
A camera crew from the French news agency AFP recorded the cloud of smoke, just after the explosion.
UN chef condemns the attack according to UN Chef Antonio Guterres, the attack is a clear violation of the sovereignty of Qatar. “All parties must work on a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, not destroying”.
Together with Egypt, Qatar plays an important role as a mediator in the negotiations between Hamas and Israel. Jordan also calls the attack a violation of international law. According to them, the attack is “a serious threat to the Qatarese population,” said foreign minister Ayman Safadi on X. Safadi states that the attack also endangers the safety and stability of the region. He says he is completely behind Qatar to “take every necessary step” in response to the “aggression”.
Prime Minister Netanyahu’s office: “Israel takes full responsibility for attack” today’s action against Hamas’s terror leaders was a completely independent operation, “said the statement on X.” Israel took the initiative, Israel has carried out it and Israel takes full responsibility “.
Earlier, Channel 12 reported on the basis of a high Israeli official that US President Trump would have given the green light for the attack. An Israeli also tells CNN that the US has been informed in advance. An official response from the White House will not be done for the time being.
Two sources within Hamas tell Reuters news agency that the negotiators of the group survived the attack in Doha.
A nu.nl reader is currently in the Qatarese capital. “For the time being I am still stuck in traffic home in Doha. A lot of police cars are driving (and people because it is rush),” says the reader. “Some roads are closed and the damage will be evaluated. Everyone is also fairly quiet.”
It would not be the first time that Hamas leaders abroad are the target of an Israeli attack. Political leader Ismail Haniyeh was killed last year when he visited the Iranian capital Tehran.
A reporter from Al Jazeera reports that a residential area has been hit and that it was not an attack at an isolated location.
A spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs calls the attack “dangerous” and a violation of international law.
The American embassy in Doha calls on American citizens to hide.
According to CNN , Khalil Al Hayya, one of the targets of the attack, had a meeting yesterday with Qateres Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-thani in Doha.
“For years these Hamas leaders have put forward the operations of the terror organization,” says a statement from the Israeli army. According to the army, the Hamas leaders would “be directly responsible” for the attacks on Israel of 7 October 2023. The army also says it has taken measures to limit civilian casualties during the attack in Qatar, including by using precision unit.
Israel is said to have called the operation “Atzeret Hadin”, reports Channel 12 . Freely translated, that means as much as the day of judgment.
According to Israeli Channel 12, President Donald Trump has given the green light for the attack. The medium thereby quotes an Israeli authority.
Qatar condemns the attack. According to the Gulf state, it is an unmistakable violation of international law. A study “at the highest level” into the attack would have been established.
An Israeli official tells Reuters news agency that the United States had been informed before the air raid.
According to Israeli media, Khalil Al Hayya and Zaher Jabarin were the target. They are a member of the political office of Hamas and were involved in the negotiations on the release of the hostages.
According to Al Jazeera , which quotes a source within Hamas, the Hamas negotiators have been the target of the attack.
The Israeli army would have wanted to touch high -ranking members of the militant group. Whether that worked is unclear.
