Qatar welcomes what it says is Hamas’s agreement to US President Donald Trump’s proposal for ending the war along with its readiness to release all remaining hostages under the terms outlined in the plan.
Qatar’s foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari also backs Trump’s subsequent announcement calling for “for an immediate ceasefire to facilitate the safe and swift release of hostages.”
Ansari says Qatar and fellow Arab mediator Egypt have begun talks in coordination with the US to “complete discussions on the plan to ensure an end to the war.”
Egypt’s foreign ministry also welcomes Hamas’s response to Trump’s proposal, which Cairo says reflects the terror group’s willingness to spare additional Palestinian civilians along with a desire to “end a dark period in the region’s history.”
The Egyptian statement thanks Trump for his efforts to end the war along with his rejection of Israeli annexation of the West Bank and the displacement of Palestinian people.
