Palestinian militant group Hamas said Friday that its chief negotiator in Gaza truce talks, Khalil al-Hayya, survived an Israeli strike on a Hamas compound in Doha earlier this week.
“Under special security arrangements, Dr Khalil al-Hayya… took part in the funeral prayers in Qatar for his martyred son Hammam and the other martyrs of the cowardly assassination attempt in Doha,” Hamas said in a terse statement.
Hamas provided no photograph of Hayya at Thursday’s funeral for the five Hamas officials and a Qatari guard killed in Tuesday’s strike.
