The Israeli government claimed sole responsibility for a strike that they alleged targeted high-level Hamas leadership in Qatar.

Hamas claimed no senior figures were killed, but some lower-ranking members were.

“Stay alert, take official warnings seriously, monitor local media and follow the advice of local authorities,” the new advice read.

”The security situation in the Middle East is unpredictable.

“If the regional security situation deteriorates again, this may result in airspace closures, flight cancellations and other travel disruptions at short notice.”

They also warned against the ongoing risk of a terrorist attack around the Middle East, including in sites visited by foreigners.

However, overall, the government does not urge people to avoid travel to Qatar, but to exercise normal safety precautions.

The Qatari government has reacted with outrage to Israel’s attack on its soil, after spending months acting as a crucial mediator in an effort to reach a ceasefire in Gaza.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said earlier that the US had been forewarned about Israel’s operation and had, in turn, warned Qatar.

She said US President Donald Trump had made clear his “concerns” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and said the strike was an “unfortunate incident” that would not advance peace.

Other world leaders, both in the region and among Israel’s allies, have condemned the attack.
