Episode description
Donald Trump says he’s “not thrilled” following an Israeli attack on Doha, the capital of key US ally Qatar.
The strike targeted Hamas "senior leadership", with five of its members killed alongside a Qatari internal security forces member.

Today, Hussein Ibish from the Arab Gulf States Institute on the consequences of Israel’s actions.
