Multiple explosions have been reported in Doha, Qatar on Tuesday, according to eyewitnesses cited by Reuters.
Axios journalist Barak Ravid, referencing Israeli officials, reported that the blasts were believed to be part of an assassination attempt targeting Hamas members. Netanyahu is really going gloves off at this point, it appears, and all negotiations seem definitively off.

“Israeli official tells me the explosion in Doha is an assassination attempt again Hamas officials,” Axios’ Ravid reports.
Ravid writes further on X of the breaking news: “Senior Israeli: The explosion in Doha is an assassination operation against senior Hamas officials.”
Could this be Hamas targeting the negotiating team, or other Hamas leaders who have long hid out in Qatar?
