Strike on Qatar ‘unfortunate’ but pursuing Hamas ‘worthy goal’: US

US Ambassador Dorothy Shea has addressed the UN Security Council, describing the strike on Qatar as “unfortunate” and an act that “does not further the US’s or Israel’s goals”. But Shea reiterated Washington’s stance that “pursuing Hamas is a worthy goal” and called on the Palestinian group to release the remaining captives and disarm. The ambassador also said Netanyahu had “reiterated his desire for peace” when he spoke to Trump on Wednesday.
