Qatari Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani stated that the negotiations regarding the war on Gaza and the ceasefire are currently “in a critical phase.”
He added: “We are now at a decisive moment… We cannot consider that there is a ceasefire; a ceasefire cannot be complete without a full Israeli withdrawal and the restoration of stability in Gaza,” noting that the mediators are working together to move into the next phase of the ceasefire.

The occupation continues to violate the ceasefire agreement, as it committed hundreds of violations up until last Thursday and killed 366 Palestinians, according to official sources in the Strip.
