Hamas leaders no longer in Doha, but office remains open, Qatar

In a notable shift, Qatari authorities have confirmed that Hamas leaders have relocated from Doha while emphasizing that the group’s political office in Qatar is not permanently closed. This development comes amidst intense scrutiny following Hamas’s involvement in the recent escalation of violence in Gaza. The announcement underscores Qatar’s complex role in regional diplomacy, balancing international pressures and its foreign policy priorities.

While details about the leaders’ destination remain unclear, the move reflects growing regional tensions and Qatar’s efforts to manage its relationships amid an evolving geopolitical landscape.
