The Gaza Strip has long been a hotbed of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict mainly involving pro-Palestine militants and later on Hamas militant groups. That conflict has been kept going and has created back-and-forth violence that has claimed many lives of civilians and has left a trail of destruction. Many mediators have tried in the past years and in the present time to establish ceasefires and thus bring about a peaceful solution in the southern part of the region, among them the United Nations, Egyptian, Qatari, and American governments. But such attempts have been mostly temporary, and the conflict has been up to flare again soon afterward.

Doha’s role as a mediator between Israel and Hamas

Doha has become very significant in the current peace negotiations mainly because it is the capital of the state of Qatar which is strategically located in the Middle East. Qatar also has diplomatic relations with Israel and Hamas and so has put itself in a position where it can only mediate the conflict. The next rounds of negotiations scheduled in Doha are another attempt to achieve the cessation of hostilities between the two parties. In these negotiations, Qatar plays a pivotal role, as it remains one of Gaza’s main financial and humanitarian sponsors and promotes peaceful settlement.

The preliminary ceasefire negotiations that will be hosted in Doha will bring together actors who include Israel, Hamas, and other Palestinian factions. Moreover, Egyptian, United Nations, and American diplomats are to serve as mediators to the match Additional information: For a long time now, Egypt has been involved in finding a middle ground for the truce between Israel and Hamas since it is strategically situated in the region. The inclusion of the United States contributes more to the negotiations because, for a long time, America has been a friend of Israel and a natural actor in Middle Eastern politics.
