Iran to back any Gaza ceasefire deal agreed by Hamas, foreign minister says

Iran will support any ceasefire deal agreed by Hamas, the country’s foreign minister told his Qatari counterpart on Monday, a day after the latest round of negotiations with Israel faltered.

Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani travelled to Tehran to brief the Iranian government on the latest developments in the mediation efforts to end Israel's military campaign in Gaza and tensions in the region. 

“We will support any agreement that our friends in the Palestinian resistance and Hamas approve,” Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told Al Thani, according to the Iranian foreign ministry.
