"Leaders from across the region are gathering in the Qatari capital to discuss a formal response to Israel's strikes on Doha last week, which it said targeted Hamas leadership and reverberated through the Middle East and beyond. Israel launched the missiles as Hamas members gathered in their Doha office to discuss a deal proposed by United States President Donald Trump to end Israel's two-year genocidal war on Gaza."
"The attack came hours after Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Saar claimed Israel had accepted the Trump proposal, which would release all 48 captives held by Hamas in Gaza in exchange for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel and a ceasefire. Israel killed five Hamas members and a Qatari security official in the attack, although it did not kill the Hamas leadership it said it was targeting."
"The United Nations Security Council unanimously condemned the attack on Thursday. Qatar has invited leaders from Arab and Islamic countries for meetings that will culminate in the emergency Arab-Islamic summit on Monday. Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Majed bin Mohammed al-Ansari told Qatar News Agency (QNA) that the summit will discuss a draft resolution on the Israeli attack that signifies another instance of state terrorism practised by Israel."
