No Filipinos directly affected by Israel's strike on Hamas officials in Doha

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) confirmed that no Filipinos were directly affected by Israel's strike on Hamas officials in Doha, Qatar.

The Philippine Embassy in Qatar stated that Filipinos in Doha are safe and the situation is under control.

The embassy has not received reports of Filipinos being directly harmed by the explosions, though it has advised Filipinos to contact them for urgent assistance.

Filipino nationals are urged to remain vigilant, monitor credible news sources, and follow the advice of local authorities, including preparing for potential road closures and heightened security.

Qatar's emir, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, has condemned Israel's "reckless criminal attack."

Hamas confirmed that five members and a Qatari security official were killed in the incident, though senior leaders reportedly survived.

An investigation into the September 9 explosions is underway, targeting residential buildings housing members of the Political Bureau of Hamas in Doha.
