The spokesman for the Qatari Foreign Ministry, Majed Al-Ansari, today (Monday) launched another attack against Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, when he claimed that "The Israeli prime minister's statements calling on Qatar to release the hostages are nothing but a new attempt to stall and prolong the war for reasons that have become known to everyone."

Al-Ansari said that, "The Israeli Prime Minister knows very well that Qatar has been committed from day one to mediation efforts, ending the crisis and freeing the hostages. This was made evident by the success of the previous humanitarian truce in freeing 109 hostages proving that mediation is the only effective method in securing the return of the the hostages, deescalation, and protecting regional security."

"We categorically reject the empty accusations made by the Israeli Prime Minister regarding Qatari efforts in reconstruction and humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people in Gaza, portraying them as funding Hamas, which he personally knows were carried out in full coordination with Israel, the US, Egypt, the United Nations, and all concerned parties," he added.
