Doha, Aug. 3 (SANA) Qatar, Egypt and Türkiye, as mediator states, expressed their strong condemnation of Israel’s ongoing violations in the Gaza Strip, particularly the targeting of health facilities and the killing of civilians, which constitute a flagrant violation of international and humanitarian law, according to a joint statement published by Qatar’s Foreign Ministry on X.
The joint statement stressed the importance of Israel’s adherence to its commitments under the ceasefire agreement, especially following the start of the second phase announced by US President Donald Trump, which includes the disarmament of the Strip in conjunction with the withdrawal of Israeli forces.
The statement renewed the importance of ensuring full protection for civilians, medical facilities and humanitarian workers, and securing the unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid and medical supplies to all areas of the Strip.
Call for international action
The joint statement called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and pressure Israel to fulfill its obligations under international law and the ceasefire agreement, ensuring the full implementation of President Trump’s peace plan.
On July 31, President Trump announced an agreement to implement a new phase of his plan to end the war in Gaza, including the disarmament of the Strip in conjunction with the withdrawal of Israeli forces, describing it as an essential step toward peace, security and the transfer of administration to a new Palestinian government working in coordination with the Gaza Peace Council.
The Gaza Peace Council earlier announced that Hamas had agreed to a roadmap for implementing the next phases of the ceasefire, aimed at applying Trump’s vision for a new administration, ensuring security and humanitarian protection, and reconstruction and economic recovery in Gaza, in line with the comprehensive peace plan and Security Council Resolution 2803.
