Israel has carried out a strike in the Qatari capital, Doha, targeting the senior leadership of Hamas. They are said to have been holding a meeting to discuss the latest Gaza ceasefire proposal. It's reported that Khalil al-Hayya, the lead negotiator for Hamas, was among those targeted. Also in the programme: The Nepalese Prime Minister has resigned after public outrage over the killing of 19 anti-corruption protesters on Monday. Demonstrations have continued with reports of fires in the parliament building and elsewhere. US lawmakers release a copy of a "birthday book" given to the late convicted paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein in 2003, which includes a note allegedly signed by US President Donald Trump. And we speak to Jung Chang- the Chinese author who wowed readers with her 1991 book Wild Swans. (Photo: A building damaged by an Israeli attack on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, September 9, 2025.

  • you Hello and welcome to News Hour from the BBC World Service.

  • We're coming to you live from London.

  • I'm Paul Henley, and we start with a story developing.

  • Currently, Israel has carried out a strike on the Qatari capital Doha,

  • targeting the senior leadership of Hamas.

  • They're reported to have been holding a meeting to discuss the latest Gaza ceasefire proposal.

  • News Hour has been talking to a witness to these attacks.

  • Shami is a local Filipina resident who heard the explosions.

  • Of course, I was in my room and then I heard a loud bang like three times before I go outside.

  • And then when I go outside, so a lot of birds on the sky coming from the other side.

  • I don't know, at first I don't know which site it is from,

  • but I said I'm missing it from around West Bay, Alcatara.

  • I was really nervous that I locked the door because I'm alone.

  • We all left the house, so I locked everything as I was scared.

  • I don't know what happened and I don't know where the loud bombs came from.

  • We are living in the perl, so it's like it's a barrier near where it happened.

  • That's why we can clearly hear the loud bomb of the bombs.

  • The words there are of Shami, a Filipina resident of Doha,

  • who lives not far from where these Israeli strikes happened.

  • Let's talk live to our correspondent Paul Adams.
