Israel says Doha talks with Hamas include 'possible end to Gaza war'
- Israel launched Operation Gideon's Chariots on March 18, intensifying its military campaign in Gaza while indirect talks with Hamas resumed in Doha on May 17.

- Israeli leaders emphasize exhausting all diplomatic options but warn that failure to progress soon will lead to continued fighting and efforts to dismantle Hamas completely.
