Doha, Qatar: Negotiators have not had “concrete approvals” from either side yet to the ceasefire proposals on the table, reported Al Jazeera.

The media house quoted Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari as saying while speaking at the weekly press briefing in Doha. 

“We have already seen statements coming from Israeli ministers which doesn’t give us a lot of confidence of there being a unified position in Israel over this current proposal on the table,” he said. “We can see also that there is a positive momentum building up on both sides.”

Al-Ansari added, “The Israeli government is meeting right now and there are discussions over accepting the proposals on the table. We need to, as an international community to put pressure on both sides to accept the proposals on the ground and end this immediately, which would only happen with all of us working together to make sure that both sides understand they need to get a deal done right now.”
