Hamas affiliate reports survival of Al-Haja following incident in Doha

In an ongoing incident involving Hamas and Israel, a reported Israeli strike has taken place in Qatar, according to multiple Arabic media outlets close to Qatar. The target of the attack was Khalil al-Hayya, a top Hamas leader, but it appears that he has survived the attack.

Al-Hayya, a prominent figure in Hamas, has a history of surviving significant incidents. In 2007, he managed to survive an Israeli military bombing of his residence in the Gaza Strip. However, this latest attack has reportedly claimed the lives of at least six individuals, including his son, three bodyguards, and the head of his office.

The Israeli strikes have not been commented on by Hamas on its official channels. Similarly, Israel has not publicly acknowledged the attack. A Hamas source has confirmed multiple fatalities in the Israeli strike, although the exact number of casualties is not specified. The Qatari Ministry of Interior has also confirmed that one security personnel was killed and several injured in the strike.

Israel has a history of targeting high-ranking Hamas figures and commanders in the Gaza Strip. Notable casualties include Yahya Sinwar and Mohammed Deif, both of whom were killed by Israel in the Gaza Strip. Al-Hayya himself lost his wife, three children, and three brothers in an Israeli military bombing of his residence in the Gaza Strip in 2007.

It is important to note that the German Press Agency was also informed about the multiple fatalities in the Israeli strike by a Hamas source. The report of the Israeli strike was also confirmed by other Arabic media outlets close to Qatar.

The situation remains fluid, and more information is expected to emerge in the coming days. The international community is closely monitoring the situation and calling for de-escalation to avoid further loss of life.
