Qatari PM hopes momentum' now to end Israel's Gaza war; Hamas deliberates
"The main focus is how to protect the people in Gaza,' stressed the Qatari PM in an interview with Al Jazeera. Qatar's Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani says the Gaza ceasefire plan unveiled by United States President Donald Trump meets the key goals set by mediators stopping the killing and displacement of Palestinians and urged all sides to seize the momentum to bring Israel's war to an end."
"He acknowledged the plan has practical and implementation challenges, but said it tackles the most urgent priority: ending the bloodshed in the Gaza Strip while also opening the door to opportunities. Everyone agreed on stopping the war, preventing displacement and the full withdrawal of the Israeli army. These are the three main, pivotal matters, he said. And the direct responsible party for managing Gaza are the Palestinian people themselves."
"On Monday, Netanyahu apologised to Qatar for the killing of a Qatari citizen during an unprecedented Israeli attack on Hamas leaders in Doha last month, which drew global condemnation. Sheikh Mohammed received the apology on Monday in a joint call from Trump and Netanyahu during their meeting at the White House. The 20-point plan has drawn support from a wide range of Arab and Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Turkiye and Indonesia."
The Gaza ceasefire plan unveiled by United States President Donald Trump aims to stop the killing and displacement of Palestinians and to end Israel's war. Qatar passed the plan, already backed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to Hamas's negotiating team and discussed its broad terms. The plan acknowledges practical implementation challenges but prioritizes ending bloodshed and opening opportunities. Key agreed matters include stopping the war, preventing displacement, and full withdrawal of the Israeli army. The Palestinian people are identified as directly responsible for managing Gaza. The plan calls for immediate end to attacks and full aid access to the Strip.
