Qatar's foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari accused Israel of "foot-dragging" in implementing the US-brokered Gaza peace plan, Middle East Eye reported. The criticism came during a weekly press briefing, where al-Ansari represented Doha's official diplomatic position on the stalled negotiations.
The public rebuke underscores mounting frustration among mediators over the pace of implementation. Qatar has served as a key intermediary in ceasefire discussions between Israel and Palestinian armed groups throughout the conflict. Al-Ansari's comments signal Doha's growing impatience with Israeli actions affecting the proposed agreement's advancement.
