Wadau hamjamboni nyote?
Hatimaye Hamas waagizwa kuondoka mara moja kutoka Qatar.
Magaidi hao wamekuwa kikwazo kwenye mchakato wa kupatikana amani kwa kugomea mipango yote ya kusitisha mapigano pamoja kukataa kuwaachia mateka wanaowashikilia
Uamuzi huo wa Qatar umetokana na ushauri wa Serikali ya Marekani aliye mshirika wake
Wanapanga kuhamishia makao yao makuu kwenye kati ya nchi za Uturuki, Iran, Oman, Lebanon au Algeria

Qatar told Hamas that it must close its diplomatic office in Doha roughly ten days ago following a request by the US, senior Biden administration officials tell The Times of Israel.
Qatar has hosted Hamas officials in Doha since 2012, amid requests from successive US administrations who felt it was important to have a communication channel with the terror group.
Following Hamas’s October 7 onslaught, the US informed Qatar that it would not be able to maintain “business as usual” with the terror group. However, it held off on asking Doha to shutter the Hamas office, viewing it as critical for the negotiations toward a ceasefire and hostage deal.
Those talks succeeded in a week-long deal last November, but they have failed to secure a permanent ceasefire or the release of the remaining 101 hostages.
A US official tells The Times of Israel that Hamas’s late August execution of American-Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin along with five other hostages and its subsequent rejection of more recent ceasefire proposals are what led the administration to change its approach regarding the terror group’s continued presence in Doha, deeming it “no longer viable or acceptable.”
The US decision also coincided with its unsealing of indictments against Hamas officials, including one of its top leaders Khaled Meshaal, who is known to reside in Doha, the US official says.
“After rejecting repeated proposals to release hostages, its leaders should no longer be welcome in the capitals of any American partner,” a second senior administration official tells The Times of Israel.
Hamas showed no signs of budging from “unrealistic positions” in the negotiations, including conditions that would have effectively ensured its ability to remain in power in Gaza — “something the US and Israel will never accept,” the US official says.
Two weeks ago, the US asked Qatar to kick out Hamas, the US official says, adding that Doha agreed and gave the notice around October 28.
Details regarding when the expulsion of Hamas officials will actually take place and where they will be ordered to go are still being worked out, the US official says.
Some of the potential landing spots raised in the past have been Turkey, Iran, Oman, Lebanon, Algeria; but each comes with certain drawbacks as far as the US is concerned
