Qatar's foreign ministry announced on Saturday that its mediation efforts for a ceasefire and hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas are currently at a standstill. This development marks a setback in resolving the ongoing conflict.
The Gulf state's intermediating initiatives are set to resume when both Israel and Hamas demonstrate a firm commitment and seriousness in ending the hostilities, as outlined by the Qatari foreign ministry.
Qatar's role as a mediator is crucial for peace, but it requires cooperation from the conflicting parties to make progress toward a ceasefire agreement.
