Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani on Wednesday called for a halt to Israeli escalations in Gaza, urging the global community to play a more robust role in this regard.<\/p>\n
The call came at a meeting in Doha between Sheikh Mohammed, who also serves as Qatar\u2019s foreign minister, and a delegation from Palestinian group Hamas led by the group’s political chief, Khalil al-Hayya.<\/p>\n
The meeting was held in the immediate wake of major Israeli escalations in the Gaza Strip.<\/p>\n
Earlier Wednesday, nine Palestinians, including police officers, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a Gaza City police station.<\/p>\n
In Doha, Qatari and Hamas officials reviewed the situation in Gaza and in other occupied Palestinian territories, according to a statement issued by the Qatari Foreign Ministry.<\/p>\n
Sheikh Mohammed welcomed the decision by Hamas \u201cto accept the roadmap for completing the implementation of the second phase of the ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip.\u201d<\/p>\n
He expressed hope that the move would contribute to \u201cending the suffering of our Palestinian brothers and sisters in Gaza and fulfilling their aspirations for security and stability.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hussien Elkabany and Serdar Dincel 19 August 2026\u2022Update: 19 August 2026 Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":589706,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43,180804],"class_list":["post-589705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news","tag-sitekeywords"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/589705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=589705"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/589705\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/589706"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=589705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=589705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=589705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
