On the 20th, Egypt, Qatar and Turkey, acting as Gaza mediators, issued a joint
statement strongly condemning recent Israeli strikes in the Gaza Strip that they
say have caused civilian casualties, including women and children. The three
expressed close concern over Israel’s continued violations of the ceasefire,
saying the escalation undermines regional and international efforts. They urged
Israel to fully comply with all ceasefire obligations and avoid actions that
could weaken the truce or further escalate tensions, and said parties are
actively working to implement a comprehensive plan to end the Gaza conflict and
take constructive measures in negotiations.
