Notably, Israel conducted an attack on Hamas leadership in Doha, killing 5 Hamas members, including the son of senior leader Khalil al-Hayya, and 1 Qatari security force member. As per the reports, an Israeli military official, the attacks were carried out to eliminate senior leaders of Hamas under the operation ‘Summit of Fire’.
However, the attacks happened when peace talks were being conducted between Hamas and Qatar’s officials, as Doha is mediating negotiations between Israel and Hamas since the October 7 war started.
