Lots of action seen in #DIMDEX2026 from @Barzan_Holdings . More than $3 billion in various contracts signed with many partners. Great to see local defense industry growing gradually.

كان الهجوم على الدوحة الذي استهدف القيادة العليا لحركة حماس “قيد الإعداد منذ عدة أشهر”، وفقًا لمصدرين إسرائيليين، لكنه تسارع خلال الأسابيع الأخيرة. وابلغ المصدران شبكة CNN أن الهجوم كان قيد التخطيط منذ نحو شهرين أو ثلاثة قبل أن تمنح القيادة الإسرائيلية الموافقة على تنفيذه. سي ان ان

Imagine the irony about the (very real possibility) that the USAF aerial refuellers that would have supported the Israeli Air Force fighters during their long journey from Israel to Qatar for the airstrikes today, would have taken off from USAF al-Udeid airbase in Qatar?

Israeli media reported that the United States' President @realDonaldTrump had granted #Israel the green-light to carry out the assassination attempt of #Hamas's political members in #Qatar on Tuesday. The attack came following numerous threats against Hamas by the U.S. and Israel in an attempt to pressure the #Palestinian group to agree to a deal. #Hamas had agreed to the proposal presented by the mediators, the U.S. and #Egypt, on August 18, which #Israel did not respond to.

The State of Qatar strongly condemns the cowardly Israeli attack that targeted residential buildings housing several members of the Political Bureau of Hamas in the Qatari capital, Doha. This criminal assault constitutes a blatant violation of all international laws and norms, and poses a serious threat to the security and safety of Qataris and residents in Qatar. The Ministry affirms that the security forces, civil defense, and relevant authorities immediately began addressing the incident and taking necessary measures to contain its repercussions and ensure the safety of the residents and surrounding areas. While the State of Qatar strongly condemns this assault, it confirms that it will not tolerate this reckless Israeli behavior and the ongoing disruption of regional security, nor any act that targets its security and sovereignty. Investigations are underway at the highest level, and further details will be announced as soon as they are available.

⭕️ Funny coincidence: i noticed earlier the presence of US KC-46 & British RAF KC2 Tankers that was present during Israeli attacks on Iran, same crusaders' callsign "LION" ⭕️ Fun fact: It took off from Al Udeid, Qatar. Imagine the humiliation, getting attacked by your guests.
BREAKING: Israel says it attacked Hamas leadership in Qatar in a strike carried out by the air force.

This would have been THE opportunity for the "Air Defense LPD" of the Qatar Navy to prove its worth... But the ship is still in Italy. It is set to arrive in late August / early September according to our information. 🇶🇦 It is fitted with Aster 30 Block 1 SAM and Kronos Power Shield radar.
