Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday strongly condemned the bombing by Israeli forces in the Qatari capital of Doha, which targeted a residential area and endangered the lives of civilians.

"On behalf of the people and government of Pakistan as well as on my own behalf, I strongly condemn the unlawful and heinous bombing in Doha," Sharif wrote on social media platform X.

He reaffirmed that his country stands firmly with Qatar and reiterated its support for the people of Palestine against Israel's aggression.

"This act of aggression by Israel is totally unjustified, a brazen violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Qatar, and constitutes a most dangerous provocation that could imperil regional peace and stability," Sharif added.

Israel's military on Tuesday claimed responsibility for the explosions heard in Doha, calling them the result of airstrikes targeting Hamas headquarters in the Qatari capital, in what it described as an attempt to assassinate senior Hamas leaders.

Qatar's Foreign Ministry strongly condemned the attack, calling it a serious threat to the security of Qatari citizens and residents.
