Israel has launched simultaneous military strikes on six countries in the space of 72 hours. Al Jazeera reports that from Monday (September 8) to Wednesday (September 10), Israeli forces carried out attacks inside Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Tunisia, Qatar and Yemen. At least 200 people were killed and hundreds more were injured in these attacks.
The most talked about attack took place on Tuesday in the Qatari capital Doha. Israel carried out an airstrike on a Hamas office during talks on a Gaza ceasefire. At least six people were killed, including Humam al-Haya, the son of Hamas leader Khalil al-Haya, his three bodyguards and a Qatari security officer. However, Hamas's top leadership remained unharmed.
Qatar became the seventh country to be attacked by Israel in 2025. Earlier, 67 people were killed and 320 injured in continuous airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Monday alone. The following day, Tuesday, another 83 people were killed and 223 injured. Many of the dead were civilians.
On the same day, Israeli warplanes attacked the Bekaa and Hermel districts of Lebanon, killing five people. Israel claims that Hezbollah weapons depots and military installations were the targets. Although a ceasefire was reached in November 2024, Israel continues to carry out regular attacks inside Lebanon.
In addition, several military installations were attacked in Homs and Latakia, Syria, overnight on Monday. The Syrian Foreign Ministry called the attack a direct violation of the country's sovereignty and a major threat to regional security. Israeli aggression in Syria has increased, especially since the fall of the Bashar al-Assad government in December 2024.
A drone attack was carried out on the Family Boat, the flagship of the Global Sumud flotilla, in the port of Sidi Bou Said, Tunisia, on Monday night. The ship caught fire, but there were no casualties. However, there was widespread panic in the Gaza-bound fleet.
On Wednesday, Israeli airstrikes killed 35 people and wounded 131 in Yemen's capital Sanaa and Al-Jawf province. Yemen's Health Ministry said several journalists were among the dead.
According to regional analysts, Israel's military attacks on six countries in just three days have taken the instability of the entire Middle East to a new level, which could lead to more serious conflicts in the future.
