US media is reporting that President Joe Biden has asked the Israeli prime minister to agree to a three-day pause in fighting. That’s to allow for the release of Israeli captives.

Qatari PM Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al Thani has said there had been “false” reports on negotiations to release Israeli captives held in Gaza, without elaborating.

In separate remarks, Qatar’s foreign ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari said efforts to secure the release of the captives required a “period of calm” and that leaks from the negotiations were “harmful”.

A rival text put forward by Moscow then failed to draw sufficient support. The US had toned down an initial draft released over the weekend after diplomats expressed shock at its failure to recognise the humanitarian crisis and its bold statement that Israel had a […]
Antonio Guterres says he was left “shocked” by the “misrepresentations” of his remarks regarding Hamas made on Tuesday during a meeting of the UN Security Council. “I am shocked by the misrepresentations by some of my statement … as if I was justifying acts of terror by Hamas.

It was the opposite,” the UN chief told reporters. “I believe it’s necessary to set the record straight – especially out of respect for the victims and their families.” For in depth analysis, Mahjoob Zweiri is a Professor of Contemporary Middle East Politics at Qatar University.
