On the occasion of Qatar National Day, Palestinians hailed the tremendous efforts exerted by the State of Qatar to stop the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and address its catastrophic humanitarian repercussions.In separate interviews with the correspondent of Qatar News Agency (QNA) in Gaza, many Palestinians expressed their hope for the success of the Qatari efforts to stop the aggression, pointing to Qatar's pivotal role in calming down and stopping previous wars in 2012, 2014, and 2021, and the subsequent Qatari efforts to rebuild Gaza and improve its humanitarian conditions.In front of one of the aid distribution centers of the Qatar Red Crescent in Gaza, Mohammed Al Sharafa praised the Qatari support that has extended for years, saying that Qatar has always been present to support the Palestinian people and alleviate their suffering amid the ongoing Israeli aggression.Qatar has honorable positions towards the Palestinian cause, and is making tremendous efforts in the mediation and diplomatic movement to stop the aggression, he added.For his part, Ibrahim Khaled, supervisor of the "Touch of Loyalty" relief project in the northern Gaza Strip, said that Qatari efforts represent a fundamental pillar in providing aid to Palestinians affected by the Israeli aggression. He explained that Qatar is strongly present by providing food parcels, equipping shelter camps and providing their residents with basic life necessities, in addition to implementing vital service projects that address the repercussions of the aggression.In the same context, media professional and, editor-in-chief of Safa News Agency, Mohammed Abu Qamar, highlighted the Qatari role that has extended since the imposition of the blockade on Gaza 17 years ago.He pointed to Qatar's success in reaching calm following the March of Return demonstrations in 2018, during which it supported the unemployed and covered the costs of fuel supplies to the power plant at a monthly cost of $30 million.At the end of his speech, Abu Qamar highlighted Qatar's political and diplomatic efforts to stop the current Israeli aggression, noting its pivotal role in reaching a humanitarian truce in November. He expressed his hope that the current shuttle talks Qatar is leading would culminate in a complete cessation of aggression that ends the suffering of the people of the Strip.The hope remains pinned on Qatar's role in halting the Israeli aggression, especially since Qatar has repeatedly demonstrated its commitment to supporting the Palestinian cause and alleviating the suffering of the people of Gaza.
