Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani during his White House meeting with US President Donald Trump to apologize for Israel’s September 9 attack on Doha. Netanyahu expressed regret over the violation of Qatar’s sovereignty and the death of a Qatari security officer.
Diplomatic sources said Qatar noted the apology but is still awaiting detailed explanations and assurances. A formal response from Doha is expected in the coming days.
