Reports that Palestinian terror group Hamas' office has moved to Turkey are not true, a Turkish diplomatic source said on Monday, adding members of the group visited the country from time to time. Doha said last week it had told Hamas and Israel it will stall efforts to mediate a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal until they show willingness and seriousness. It also said that media reports it had told Hamas to leave the country were no accurate. Turkey has fiercely criticized Israel over its offensives in Gaza and in Lebanon and does not deem Hamas a terrorist organiz ation. Some Hamas political officials regularly visit Turkey.
