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 Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused the leaders of France, Britain and Canada of wanting to help the Palestinian militant group Hamas after they threatened to take "concrete action" if Israel did not stop its latest offensive in Gaza.
Israel's military said it intercepted two missiles launched from Yemen and that sirens had sounded twice across the country including in Jerusalem and the West Bank on Friday, as the Iran-aligned Houthis stepped up attacks.
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), one of the few Arab nations maintaining diplomatic ties with Israel, has strongly condemned the shooting attack that killed two employees of the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C., according to a statement issued Thursday by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
