Hamas has accused the United States of complicity in Israel's recent fatal attack on its negotiators in Qatar, which occurred as peace talks aimed at a Gaza truce were underway. The unprecedented strikes in a Gulf state on Tuesday halted the already struggling negotiations.

• Five Hamas members and one Qatari Lance Corporal were killed in the attack.
• The attack has prompted Qatar to reevaluate its role as mediator in the ceasefire talks, with Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani stating that hope for Israeli hostages in Gaza has been lost.
• The incident has drawn condemnation and solidarity from Gulf neighbors, with the UAE affirming that an attack on a GCC member constitutes an attack on collective Gulf security.
