The spokesperson for Qatar's Foreign Ministry maintains an optimistic outlook although a deal on a ceasefire in Gaza seems far-fetched.

Qatar's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson, Majed al-Ansari, expressed optimism despite the absence of a finalized captive and ceasefire agreement, stating that Doha remains hopeful.

"We are not close to achieving a Gaza ceasefire deal, the situation is very complicated on the ground," he added.

During a press conference in Doha, he said, “We are not seeing both sides converging on language that can resolve the current disagreement over the implementation of a deal.” 

All sides were “continuing to work in the negotiations to reach a deal hopefully within the confines of Ramadan,” al-Ansari stressed.

'Israel' using manipulation in negotiations to gain time: Hamas

Last Thursday, Hussam Badran, a member of the Hamas Political Bureau, announced that the movement's delegation left Cairo to engage in further discussions with the movement's leadership.

Badran mentioned that the reason behind the stalled negotiations is the insistence of the Israeli occupation's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on maintaining his position and his attempt to manipulate the negotiations to gain more time.

Addressing Sputnik, Badran explained that Netanyahu rejected a ceasefire due to disagreements on several points. According to Badran, "There are no positive responses regarding the [Israeli occupation forces'] withdrawal from Gaza, no guarantees for the entry of aid or reconstruction, not to mention the main issue which is related to the return of refugees to their homes, especially in northern Gaza."

Moreover, the Hamas official stressed that "the occupation has been manipulating [negotiations] as if it wants to gain more time" as it refuses to respond to the "just demands of our Palestinian people."

Badran considered that "the American calls for a ceasefire and the entry of aid into the Gaza Strip lack credibility, given that the United States is a partner with Israel in its war on the Palestinian people."
