An Israeli operation in the Gaza Strip's southern city of Rafah would result in major destruction and "atrocities" that have not been seen in the war, Qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson Majed Al-Ansari said on Tuesday. Qatar is cautiously optimistic about the Gaza cease-fire talks, he added during a press conference in Doha.
It should be noted that Qatar has been financing the Hamas for many years. Doha hosts the political bureau of the Islamist organization.
The Emirates would be better off convincing the Hamas to lay down their arms to stop the war.
Israeli officials have signaled they want the United Nations to remain the key avenue for humanitarian deliveries in Gaza, the deputy head of the World Food Programme said on Friday, noting the work of a controversial U.S. aid group was not discussed.
A proposal seen by Reuters and bearing the name of a controversial U.S.-backed aid group described a plan to build large-scale camps called “Humanitarian Transit Areas” inside - and possibly outside - Gaza to house the Palestinian population, outlining a vision of "replacing Hamas' control over the population in Gaza."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday he hoped to reach a deal in a few days for the release of more Israeli hostages held by the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.
