The day of the Doha strike on Hamas leadership

Lebanese media initially focused on the state's efforts to assert authority over Hezbollah's weapons, continuing themes from previous days. Reports discussed the army's plan to disarm Hezbollah south of the Litani within three months, with Speaker Berri and Prime Minister Salam supporting the government's decisions. Hezbollah maintained it would not surrender its arms without guarantees, while discussions persisted on the group's integration into the state for confronting Israel securely. However, the editorial focus dramatically shifted in the early afternoon with widespread reports of an Israeli strike targeting Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar. This unprecedented attack, leading to explosions in the capital and the reported killing of Khalil al-Hayya's son, quickly dominated coverage. Qatar strongly condemned Israel's "reckless behavior," and Lebanese officials, including President Aoun and Prime Minister Salam, condemned the aggression and expressed solidarity with Doha.
