Qatar has suspended its work as a mediator in ceasefire and hostage release talks between Israel and Hamas The country says it would resume its work when Hamas and Israel show their willingness to negotiate. It comes after senior US officials reportedly says Washington would no longer accept the presence of Hamas representatives in Qatar, accusing the Palestinian group of rejecting fresh proposals for an end to the war in Gaza. Qatar says initial reports from withdrawn from mediation talks are inaccurate. Qatar however says it will resume those efforts when the parties show their willingness and seriousness to end the brutal war.
