Ataque Aéreo Israelí en Catar Tensa las Relaciones Diplomáticas y los Esfuerzos de Alto el Fuego

"...Netanyahu's global standing, already badly damaged by the scenes of destruction and humanitarian disaster in Gaza, took another hit...."

"...The airstrike Tuesday has enraged Qatar, an influential U.S. ally that has been a key mediator throughout the war, and drawn heavy criticism across the Arab world...."

"...It also has strained relations with the White House and thrown hopes of reaching a ceasefire into disarray, potentially endangering the 20 hostages still believed to be alive in Gaza...."

"...But while the strike marks a setback for Netanyahu, the Israeli leader shows no sign of backing down or halting the war...."

"...And with his hard-line coalition still firmly behind him, Netanyahu faces no immediate threat to his rule...."

"...Netanyahu’s hope for an ‘image of victory’ for his government..."

"...A successful operation in Qatar could have allowed Netanyahu to placate the hard-liners, even though it would have eliminated the very officials responsible for negotiating a possible ceasefire...."

"...Burning the channel with Qatar..."

"...Israel has had the ability to target Hamas leaders in Doha from the start of the war but did not want to antagonize the Qataris while negotiations took place, Chorev said...."

"...Qatar has helped negotiate two previous ceasefires that have released 148 hostages, including eight bodies, in exchange for thousands of Palestinian prisoners...."

"...Israel’s military has rescued just eight hostages alive, and retrieved the bodies of 51 hostages...."

"...While Israel has complained that Qatar was not putting pressure on Hamas, it had continued to leave that channel open — until Tuesday...."

"...“Israel, by the attack, notified the whole world that it gave up on the negotiations,” Chorev said...."

"...“They’ve decided to burn the channel with Qatar.”..."

"...Asked if ceasefire talks would continue, Qatar’s prime minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani said that after the strike, “I don’t think there’s anything valid” in the current talks...."

"...But he did not elaborate and stopped short of saying Qatar would end its mediation efforts...."

"...How Netanyahu hopes to win the release of the remaining hostages remains unclear...."

"...On Thursday, Sheikh Mohammed accused Israel of abandoning the hostages...."

"...“Extremists that rule Israel today do not care about the hostages — otherwise, how do we justify the timing of this attack?” Sheikh Mohammed told the U.N. Security Council...."

"...Nonetheless, he said his country was ready to resume its mediation without giving any indication of next steps...."

"...On Friday, Sheikh Mohammed met in Washington with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who was scheduled to visit Israel this weekend in a sign of how the Trump administration is trying to balance relations between key Middle East allies...."

"...Straining ties with the US..."

"...Netanyahu, who has received ironclad support from the U.S. since President Donald Trump returned to office, appears to have strained ties with his most important ally...."

"...Trump said he was “very unhappy” about the airstrike and assured the Qataris such an attack would not happen again...."

"...Trump, however, has not said whether he would take any punitive action against Israel or indicated that he will pressure Netanyahu to halt the war...."

"...Netanyahu, in the meantime, remains undeterred and threatened additional action if Qatar continues to host the Hamas leadership...."

"...The message to Hamas is clear, he said Thursday: “There is no place where we cannot reach you.”..."

"...Little impact on the war in Gaza..."

"...Israel is pressing ahead with its expanded offensive aimed at conquering Gaza City...."

"...The military has urged a full evacuation of the area holding around 1 million people ahead of an expected invasion...."

"...“Netanyahu’s government is adamant to go on with the military operation in Gaza,” said Gayil Talshir, a political scientist at Hebrew University in Jerusalem...."

"...Israel has brushed off calls to halt the war from the United Nations, the European Union and a growing number of major Western countries who plan to recognize a Palestinian state at the U.N. Security Council later this month, she said...."

"...The only one who might be able to change this trajectory is Trump, she added, by telling Israel “enough is enough.”..."

"...Netanyahu’s political future unthreatened..."

"...If Hamas’ leaders survived, and the negotiations collapse, Netanyahu will further alienate the roughly two-thirds of the Israeli public who want an end to the war and a deal to bring home the hostages...."

"...But that opposition has been in place for months, with little influence on Netanyahu...."

"...“Netanyahu’s future in the near term doesn’t depend on the Israeli public,” said Yohanan Plesner, president of the Israel Democracy Institute, a Jerusalem think tank...."

"...Instead, his political survival depends on his governing coalition, many of whom have expressed wholehearted support for the assassination attempt...."

"...This has sparked panic and more suffering for the families of the hostages still held in Gaza...."

"...Einav Zangauker, whose son, Matan, is among the captives, said this week she was “shaking with fear” after hearing about Israel’s attack in Doha...."

"...“Why does the prime minister insist on blowing up every chance for a deal?” she asked, on the verge of tears. “Why?”..."
