Israel Airstrikes Kill Hamas Leaders in Doha, Gaza Talks Disrupted

Israel carried out a deadly airstrike on a Hamas compound in Doha, Qatar, targeting the Palestinian resistance movement's negotiators engaged in ceasefire talks for Gaza. Hamas accused the United States of complicity in the attack, describing it as an assassination of the entire negotiation process and a deliberate attempt to undermine peace efforts. Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani joined mourners at the funeral for five Hamas members and a Qatari security officer killed in the strike, which sent shockwaves through the region and halted already fragile Gaza talks. Hamas officials condemned the attack as not only an assault on Qatar's sovereignty but also a declaration of war against Arab and Islamic nations, threatening regional stability. The White House stated that President Donald Trump did not approve the military action and was not notified beforehand; he promptly asked his envoy to warn Qatar, but the attack had already commenced. Despite the strike, Hamas's top leadership survived, though several members were killed and others, including family members of key negotiators, were wounded.
