After speculation he was killed, Sinwar said to renew contact with Qatar
A senior Israeli official tells Walla news that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar has renewed his contact with Qatar, after going off the grid for weeks, which had given rise to speculation that he might have been killed.
The official says it does not seem Sinwar has in any way softened his positions on a hostage-and-ceasefire deal.
