Egypt and Qatar issue a joint statement asserting that they are continuing their mediation efforts after the US and Israel withdrew their negotiators from Doha over frustration with Hamas.
The two Arab countries insist that some progress had been made in the last round of negotiations. They say the US and Israel had merely recalled their negotiators “to hold consultations before resuming dialogue,” adding that the practice is “normal in the context of these complex negotiations.”
Egypt and Qatar add that they remain committed to securing a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal.
