US vice-president’s trip comes a day after two Trump envoys met Netanyahu

Speaking at the opening session of Shura council, Qatar’s legislative council, Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani accused Israel of violating the 11-day-old ceasefire.

“We reiterate our condemnation of all Israeli violations and practices in Palestine, particularly the transformation of the Gaza Strip an area unfit for human life (and) the continued violation of the ceasefire,” he said.

“It is unfortunate that the international community remains incapable of enforcing respect when it comes to the tragedy of the Palestinian people.”

The Palestinian news agency said that Israel has violated the ceasefire 80 times and killed at least 80 Palestinian people since the deal went into effect.
