In a devastating Israeli airstrike in Gaza, three sons and two grandchildren of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh were killed. The strike targeted their car in Gaza's Al-Shati camp. Haniyeh, based abroad in Qatar, condemned the attack but vowed not to alter Hamas' stance in ongoing negotiations. The eldest son confirmed the tragic loss on Facebook. Haniyeh, appointed in 2017, has been a key figure in Hamas' diplomacy. Israel views Hamas leaders as terrorists but it's unclear how much Haniyeh knew about prior attacks. The airstrike adds to tensions amidst ceasefire talks in the war-torn region.
