Israel launches strikes against Hamas leaders in Qatar's capital Doha

Source: Sky News

The Israeli military has said it has targeted the leadership of Hamas with strikes on Qatar's capital Doha.

Qatar has condemned the "cowardly Israeli attack" on the Palestinian militant group's political headquarters in the city, calling it a "flagrant violation of all international laws and norms".

Several explosions were heard in the city, with smoke seen rising over the Katara district.

No injuries have so far been reported.

A few hours earlier:
Hamas discussing US 'ideas' for Gaza ceasefire after Trump's 'last warning'

Hamas says it has received "some ideas" from the US through mediators on how to reach a Gaza ceasefire agreement.

The Palestinian armed group said it was discussing how to develop the ideas, noting that it was ready to release its 48 remaining hostages in Gaza in return for a "clear" declaration ending the war.

A Palestinian official told the BBC the US plan would see the hostages freed in the first 48 hours of a 60-day truce in exchange for Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails and good-faith negotiations on a permanent ceasefire.

It came after US President Donald Trump gave Hamas what he called a "last warning" to agree a deal. He said Israel had accepted his terms, without giving details.

ordered this hit.

Again Bibi tells Tr**p one thing and then goes ahead and does his own thing.

You can't trust Bibi. You can't trust Tr**p.

Maybe because they didn't send agents to stab the Hamas leaders personally?

Israel can attack any country in the region for decades. Ho hum says the West. No hope now for Palestinians.

People are celebrating, I saw it on another thread.
