Israelis warned US of Qatar strike before jets were in the air: Report

Israeli officials reportedly warned Washington about a planned strike on the Hamas political bureau in Doha, Qatar, before jets were airborne, a claim the White House denies. According to the denial, the Pentagon only learned of the attack while it was in progress. The strike was contentious within Israel's leadership, with the Mossad Chief and military chief opposing it, believing it could have derailed negotiations to free captives. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Defence Minister, and the Shin Bet supported the strike.
