Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh met with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir Abdollahian in the Qatari capital of Doha to discuss Israel’s ongoing military campaign in Gaza.
"The meeting focused on the latest political developments and the situation on the ground in Palestine," said Nasser Kanaani, a spokesperson for Iran's foreign ministry.
"Haniyeh spoke about the high morale and aspirations of the resistance in the field." Kanaani also noted that Haniyeh said Hamas is ready for a cease-fire, but the terrorist organization will not negotiate under Israeli attacks.
An apparent drone attack - claimed by the Iranian-backed Houthi militia - hit central Tel Aviv in the early hours of Friday, killing one man and slightly wounding four others, the Israeli military and emergency services said.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told his U.S. counterpart that military operations in the Gaza Strip have created conditions that would enable a hostage deal to be reached, Gallant's office said on Wednesday.
A meeting of the United Nations Security Council on the Middle East was briefly interrupted on Wednesday when two protesters stood with signs and yelled for the release of Israeli hostages held by Palestinian militants Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
