Mossad chief heads to Qatar to negotiate over Gaza hostages for first time since August

On October 27, Mossad chief David Barnea will travel to Qatar to discuss the terms of possible negotiations on the release of hostages held in the Gaza Strip by the Hamas terrorist group.

The talks will be the first since August. In particular, CIA Director William Burns will take part in them. It turned out that Barnea was collaborating in secret on the new agreement along with the Qataris, Americans and Egyptians.

“They feel there is a real chance for a new start,” the source added, without elaborating.
