Qatar awoke Wednesday still digging through the rubble of an Israeli attack the previous day on Hamas’ political leaders who had gathered in the capital of the energy-rich Middle East country to consider a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
Qatar’s local media hewed tightly to government statements issued after Tuesday’s attack, which killed at least six people in a Doha neighborhood that is home to foreign embassies and schools. Qatar is ruled by a hereditary emir and tightly restricts speech like other Gulf Arab nations.
