Qatar cannot comment on remarks by US President Joe Biden that a ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas could be agreed next week, a foreign ministry spokesperson says.
Majed Al-Ansari tells a press conference there is no breakthrough to announce on a ceasefire and hostage deal, but that Qatar is “pushing hard” for the agreement sketched out in Paris to be accepted by Israel and Hamas.
He says Qatar is “upbeat and optimistic on Gaza mediation talks.”
