Qatar’s prime minister has said Qatari mediators have restarted meetings with Hamas following the killing of leader Yahya Sinwar by Israeli forces in Gaza last week, AFP reports.

“We re-engaged with them. There has been an engagement with the representatives from the political office in Doha. We had some meetings with them in the last couple of days,” Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani said, adding that discussions between Egypt and the Palestinian group were also “ongoing”.
