nzz.ch/meinung/erdogan-darf-der-hamas-nicht-den-roten-teppich-ausrollen-ld.1827403
Quick Glance: Turkey Should Not Provide Sanctuary to Hamas
- The images of the meeting between the Turkish President and the Hamas leader in Istanbul are causing unease. Supporting the terrorist organization is problematic. The Islamists are no longer suitable as negotiating partners for resolving the Middle East conflict.
- Recep Tayyip Erdogan received Hamas leader Ismail Haniya with a certain statesmanship and drew parallels between Hamas and Turkish insurgents. Turkey adamantly refuses to categorize Hamas as a terrorist organization.
- Speculations are arising about a potential relocation of Hamas leaders from Qatar to Turkey. Qatar is under pressure due to its closeness to Islamists. Turkey could be an appealing choice for Hamas.
- Moving the Hamas headquarters to Turkey would be a provocation towards Israel and its allies. Hamas has discredited itself as a reliable negotiating partner. A political resolution of the Middle East conflict should exclude the involvement of Hamas.

apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-news-04-22-2024-85da1c989f71f8c3bf00d8b45a0ed7f1
Quick Glance: Israeli Military Intelligence Chief Resigns Over Hamas Attack Failures
- The head of Israeli military intelligence resigned due to the failures surrounding Hamas’ unprecedented attack on October 7, marking the first senior resignation in Israel's history.
- Maj. Gen. Aharon Haliva’s resignation could trigger additional resignations among Israel’s top security officials in response to the Hamas attack that initiated the Gaza war.
- Haliva, alongside other military and security leaders, were expected to address the evident failures leading up to and during October 7.
- Israel and its esteemed security forces were caught entirely off guard by the Hamas attack on a Jewish holiday, shattering trust in the military. The resignation may contribute to rebuilding some of this trust.

- Workers from the Gaza Civil Defense announced the discovery of a mass grave with almost 300 bodies at a hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis in Gaza, subsequent to the withdrawal of Israeli forces earlier this month.

- It is believed that some bodies were discovered with bound hands and feet, along with indications of field executions. The specific circumstances of their deaths, whether they were buried alive or executed, remain unclear.
- The IDF has stated that they transported multiple bodies from Gaza to Israel for DNA testing before repatriating the remains in containers. The region surrounding the Nasser Medical Complex experienced heavy bombardment and conflict during January and February.
