US EditionQatar Wants an Apology From Israel
Qatar insists on an Israeli apology for the September 9 strike that killed five Hamas members in Doha, blocking mediation efforts to end the Gaza conflict and release hostages.
- Qatar demands an apology from Israel for the September 9 airstrike targeting Hamas leaders in Doha's diplomatic quarter to resume Gaza ceasefire mediation.
- The demand follows stalled Gaza talks, the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack, and increased regional tensions after Israel rejected Hamas' terms and retaliated with the strike.
- The strike killed five lower-level Hamas officials, injured civilians, violated Qatari sovereignty, and sparked calls for states to review ties with Israel at a joint Arab League-OIC summit.
- Qatar may accept an apology highlighting the killed Qatari security official, promising no further strikes, while 48 Israelis remain captive after almost two years of conflict.
- Qatar’s mediation role remains crucial as the Trump administration stated a new deal is difficult without Qatar, amid worsening global relations due to Israel’s Gaza conduct and West Bank annexation.
