Israeli strike targets Hamas leaders in Qatar

Israel launched a strike targeting Hamas’ leadership in Qatar as they considered a U.S. proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. Tuesday’s strike on the territory of a U.S. ally marked a stunning escalation and risked upending talks aimed at winding down the war and freeing hostages. Qatar, which has served as a key mediator between Israel and Hamas, condemned the “flagrant violation of all international laws and norms” as smoke rose over its capital, Doha. Hamas said in a statement that its top leaders survived the strike but that five lower-level members were killed, including the son of Hamas’ leader for Gaza. The White House described the attack as an ‘unfortunate incident’ that didn’t advance peace in region.
