Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump spoke twice after Israel's strike in Doha targeting Hamas leaders, an Israeli official told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday.
"The conversations were good", the official claimed.
Despite this, Trump stated that the decision to strike in Qatar was Netanyahu's decision alone, adding that the decision "does not advance Israel or America's goals."
"However, eliminating Hamas, who have profited off the misery of those living in Gaza, is a worthy goal," he added.
Israel has yet to confirm the death of any senior Hamas leaders in Doha, an additional official told the Post. "It doesn't mean we didn't manage to kill anyone, but right now, nothing is verified," the official explained.
Katz: Hamas leaders have nowhere to hide
Dismissing criticism of Tuesday’s airstrike on Hamas leaders in Qatar, Defense Minister Israel Katz said Israel would continue pursuing the terror group’s highest officials.
“Israel’s security doctrine is clear - its long hand will act against its enemies everywhere,” Katz said in a statement. “There’s nowhere they can hide. Everyone who was involved in the October 7 massacre will be brought to justice in full. Everyone who carries out terror against Israel will be harmed.”
