- Hamas documents identify Qatar as the 'main artery' of the movement
- Qatar accused of providing critical financial support to Hamas
- Doha attempting to distance itself due to economic fallout from regional war
- Qatar denies authenticity of seized documents detailing financial ties

As reported by The Jerusalem Post, Qatar is attempting to distance itself from Hamas following economic damage caused by regional conflicts. The report references seized Hamas documents, which describe Qatari financial grants as the 'main artery' of the Hamas movement. While Qatar has officially rejected these documents as 'falsified and fabricated,' the report highlights the deep-seated financial dependency of the terror group on Doha. The article suggests that the recent Iranian attacks on Qatar have forced a strategic reassessment in Doha, leading to a cooling of the previously robust relationship between the Gulf state and the Hamas leadership.
