President Donald Trump revealed that the U.S. military discovered Israel's plan to strike Hamas officials in Qatar after it was "too late to stop the attack."

In a Tuesday post on Truth Social, Trump suggested he had no control over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision to target a Hamas negotiating delegation in Qatar.

"This morning, the Trump Administration was notified by the United States Military that Israel was attacking Hamas which, very unfortunately, was located in a section of Doha, the Capital of Qatar," the U.S. president explained. "This was a decision made by Prime Minister Netanyahu, it was not a decision made by me."

"I immediately directed Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to inform the Qataris of the impending attack, which he did, however, unfortunately, too late to stop the attack," he continued. "I view Qatar as a strong Ally and friend of the U.S., and feel very badly about the location of the attack."

Trump said he believed Netanyahu wanted peace despite the attack.

"I also spoke to the Emir and Prime Minister of Qatar, and thanked them for their support and friendship to our Country," he added. "I assured them that such a thing will not happen again on their soil."
