Majed al-Ansari, the spokesman of Qatar’s Foreign Ministry, says Israel has yet to respond to the latest ceasefire proposal for Gaza, which had been accepted by Hamas, and has called on the Netanyahu government to engage in negotiations to end the war.
“There has been no Israeli response yet,” he said, adding that there have been ongoing contacts with “mediators and the US, but so far there has been no progress on the framework”.
“There must be an Israeli response and engagement in negotiations, but there is nothing new so far,” he added.
He said Israel’s plan to occupy Gaza “poses a threat to everyone”, including Israeli captives in Gaza, and that a “unified international position must be formed to stop Israel”.
“There is no point in waiting for the peace process while no Israeli party wants this process,” he said.
