The Turkish government has denied that the Palestinian movement Hamas has relocated its political bureau to Turkey, amidst claims that the group was looking for a new home after a purported Qatari request to leave the Gulf state.
Turkish diplomatic sources told journalists on Monday that members of the Hamas political bureau visit Turkey from time to time but the claims that the group has moved to the country “do not reflect the truth".
On Sunday, Israeli public broadcaster Kan reported that Hamas members departed from Doha to Turkey after Qatar allegedly requested their departure.
