Japan Denounces Israeli Strike on Hamas Leaders in Qatar
(MENAFN) Japan strongly denounced Israel's recent strike on a Hamas negotiation team in Doha, Qatar, warning that the attack threatens regional stability, according to local media reports.
"At a time when serious diplomatic efforts are underway by countries including Qatar to achieve a cease-fire in Gaza and secure the release of hostages, Israel's attack hinders those efforts, threatens Qatar's sovereignty and security, and endangers regional stability," media quoted Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi as saying.
On Tuesday, Israel’s military confirmed it had carried out a “precise strike targeting the senior leadership” of Hamas.
Qatar has since condemned the attack as "cowardly," noting that the strike hit residential buildings where members of Hamas's political bureau were residing.
The Gulf nation, in collaboration with the United States and Egypt, has played a pivotal role in mediating efforts to bring an end to the ongoing conflict in Gaza, which has already resulted in significant casualties.
