Hamas has said that five of its members were killed in Israel's airstrike on the Qatari capital Doha, but its top leadership has survived.
Senior Hamas member Suhail al-Hindi told Qatari broadcaster Al Jazeera on Tuesday that the militants' senior leaders had survived the strike.
The son of the Palestinian militant group's Gaza chief Khalil al-Hayya, who lived in exile in Qatar, was among those killed.
Al-Hayya, the highest ranking Hamas member outside of Gaza, survived the militant group said.
A Qatari security officer was also killed in the strike, Qatar's Interior Ministry said, adding that several others were injured.
But the group said that Israel had failed in its attempt to assassinate Hamas' ceasefire negotiators.
Since the start of the conflict in Gaza in October 2023, Israel has killed a number of senior Hamas figures, including Yahya al-Sinwar and Mohammed Deif, as well as the group's political chief Ismail Haniyeh in a missile strike in Tehran in 2024.
Key takeaways from Qatar's Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani's press conference.
Gaza peace talks
Asked if the Gaza peace talks will continue, Sheikh Mohammed said that he didn't think "there's anything valid" in the current talks "after today's attack." But, he said, "Qatar has spared no efforts and will do everything it can to stop this war in Gaza."
Qatar, along with Egypt and the United States, has been a key mediator between Israel and Hamas during the war in Gaza.
Strong words for Netanyahu
Sheik Mohammed blamed Israel for sabotaging what he said were chances for peace and sharply criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
He said Netanyahu practices "state terrorism" and was "dragging the region to a place where it unfortunately cannot be repaired."
Netanyahu has called the attack "entirely justified" and was ordered after an attack in Jerusalem and the loss of four Israeli soldiers in Gaza.
US warning of attack
The Qatari prime minister also said US officials first warned his government of the Israeli attack 10 minutes after it began, describing the strike as "100% treacherous."
Qatar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said earlier on Tuesday that claims Qatar had been pre-informed of the attack were "baseless."
"The call from a US official came during the sound of explosions caused by the Israeli attack in Doha," ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari wrote in a statement on X.
In a post on Truth Social, US President Donald Trump said his administration tried to warn Doha but the warning was "unfortunately, too late to stop the attack."
Regional response
Sheik Mohammed suggested that countries across the Middle East must come together to rein in Israel.
"Today, we have reached a turning point for there to be a response from the entire region against such barbaric conduct," he said, according to Qatar-based broadcaster Al Jazeera.
