Trump says he was not informed by Netanyahu before Israel’s strike in Qatar

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday he was not informed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in advance about Israel’s attack in Qatar last week.
Trump’s comments came after an Axios report said that Netanyahu informed the U.S. president of the strike shortly ahead of time.
The Trump administration has said it was notified only after missiles were in the air, giving Trump no opportunity to oppose the strike. Axios reported, citing Israeli officials, that the White House knew earlier, even if the timeline to stop the attack would have been tight.
