US, Israel, Qatar Officials Held Talks in Bid to Repair Ties
US, Israeli and Qatari officials held a meeting Sunday in New York as part of an effort to rebuild relations after Israel’s airstrike in September on Doha targeting Hamas leaders, a White House official said.
US special envoy Steve Witkoff met with David Barnea — the head of Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency — and a senior Qatari official. Witkoff hosted the meeting, said the White House official, who spoke on anonymity.
