Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani said on Tuesday that Doha was working to restart Gaza ceasefire talks in the coming days and cautioned Israel against using its truce with Iran as a pretext to intensify attacks on the besieged enclave.
“We are still continuing our efforts, and God willing, we will try to look for an opportunity during the next two days for having indirect negotiations between the two parties,” Al Thani said during a joint press conference with his Lebanese counterpart.
He added, “We hope that the Israeli side will not exploit the ceasefire with Iran to unleash what it wants to unleash on Gaza and continue its bombing of [the Strip].
