Netanyahu justifies Doha strike, says it successfully demonstrated Israel's determination in battling terror

Jerusalem, Sep 15 (UNI) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while acknowledging the military failure of the IDF's missile attack in Doha, hailed it as a success, as it was able to deliver Jerusalem's message to the world on its stance against terrorists – that it will hunt terrorists and kill them no matter where they are.
Speaking alongside US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Jerusalem, he said: "It didn't fail, because it had one central message and we considered it before we launched it, and that is, you can hide, you can run, but we'll get you," reports Times of Israel.
The strike, aimed at Hamas' leadership in a Qatari complex, drew unanimous international condemnation as a breach of territorial sovereignty. Both the IDF and external observers have cast doubt on whether any senior Hamas officials were killed due to vague and unconfirmed findings.
