DOHA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Qatar’s foreign ministry said on Tuesday that efforts are underway to stop the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip, affirming that there is an exchange of ideas between Doha and other concerned parties in this regard.
At the weekly press briefing, the spokesman for the ministry Majed al-Ansari said that all the ideas being tabled by various parties focus on stopping the war on Gaza to prevent its spread in the region and brokering a prisoner swap deal.
“We are open in Qatar to any ideas that are put forward, fulfill the Palestinian people’s aspirations and contribute to extracting their freedom, but the priority now is to stop the war, bring in humanitarian aid and prevent the war from expanding and turning into a large-scale conflict,” spokesman Ansari said.
He reiterated Qatar’s rejection of what was recently stated by Israeli officials about displacing the Palestinian citizens in Gaza to other countries, stressing that such Israeli remarks would not be accepted in any way.
