Senior US officials have stated that Washington will no longer tolerate Hamas representatives in Qatar, citing their rejection of ceasefire negotiations and hostage agreements. Qatar, a vital ally hosting a US air base, has reportedly agreed to ask Hamas to close its political office. This move suggests a push by the Biden administration for a peace deal before its term ends. Experts believe that if Hamas is forced out, it may seek refuge in Turkey or Iran, though both options could pose new risks. The situation highlights growing US frustration with Israel’s handling of the Gaza conflict.
