The Latest: Rubio Visits Israel Following the Country’s Attack in Qatar

Israeli air strikes targeted Hamas positions in Gaza City, killing 13 Palestinians amid escalating conflict and diplomatic efforts by the US to support Israel, officials said.

  • The top U.S. diplomat embarked on a two-day trip to Israel on Saturday to express support following the recent Israeli airstrike in Qatar that resulted in at least six casualties.
  • The visit came after an Israeli operation targeting Hamas figures in Doha, which disrupted ongoing efforts to establish a ceasefire and secure the release of hostages, while President Trump expressed frustration toward Netanyahu over the lack of prior notification about the strike.
  • During his visit, Rubio toured the Western Wall with Netanyahu and U.S. ambassador Mike Huckabee, met with Israeli officials about Gaza’s future, and discussed regional fallout with Qatar's prime minister.
  • Israeli military strikes in northern Gaza flattened multiple high-rise buildings after evacuation warnings, killing at least 13 Palestinians, while Gaza residents accused Israel of genocidal actions and warned of another Nakba.
  • Rubio reaffirmed unwavering U.S. support for Israel despite President Trump's dissatisfaction with the strike, as an upcoming UN debate on Palestinian statehood promises to be highly contentious amid Israel's isolation.
