Strategic Diplomacy: Qatar Hosts Crucial Gaza Peace Discussions
Mossad Director David Barnea met Qatar's prime minister to push prisoner exchange talks amid warnings of a possible large-scale Israeli Defense Forces operation in Gaza.
- Amid stalled negotiations, Mossad Director David Barnea met with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani in Doha, Aug. 14, 2025.
- Earlier this week, a Hamas delegation arrived in Qatar to revive talks, after negotiations collapsed in Doha three weeks ago, according to reports.
- The Mossad said the trip was "for Mossad-related matters, and not on matters relating to the negotiations for a hostage deal" and clarified that "a partial deal, one where only some of the hostages held in the Gaza Strip are recovered, is off the table."
- On Tuesday, Netanyahu said efforts to secure a truce are now centered on a comprehensive deal to release all remaining hostages, with 20 to 22 believed alive in Gaza, Hamas threatened to kill them if approached.
- Regional mediation now includes talks in Istanbul and Cairo, as Egypt is intensifying contacts with all parties to secure a ceasefire, while Hamas recently visited Istanbul before meeting Hassan Rashad in Cairo.
