Marc Lamont Hill discusses Israel’s strike on Doha and what it means for Gaza ceasefire negotiations.
This week, Israel launched an unprecedented airstrike on Qatar’s capital, Doha, claiming it was focusing on senior Hamas leaders. Qatar, a key mediator between Hamas and Israel, condemned the strike as a violation of worldwide legislation and branded it an act of “state terrorism.”
How has Israel been in a position to act with such impunity? And what does this assault imply for the way forward for ceasefire negotiations in Gaza?
On this UpFront particular, Marc Lamont Hill speaks with former Israeli negotiator – Daniel Levy, fellow on the Institute for Coverage Research – Phyllis Bennis, and Palestine Mission coordinator on the Arab Heart in Washington, DC – Hanna Alshaikh.
