Big statement by Trump's close aide and US Ambassador Steve Witkoff: After a long wait of two years, signs of peace are beginning to be established in the Middle East. The agreement on a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, brokered by US President Donald Trump, is being successful to a great extent. However, the Middle East has been quite tense in the last few months, especially when Israel suddenly bombed Qatar's capital, Doha, which shocked the entire world.

Trump's close aide revealed the secret

US Ambassador Steve Witkoff, who is involved in peace talks in the Middle East, said that he and Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner felt betrayed after Israel's action. Witkoff said he was shocked when he learned on September 9 that Israel had bombed Gaza.

Impact of attack on Qatar

Qatar is an important ally of America and was mediating in ending the Gaza war. “Both Jared and I felt like we were betrayed,” Witkoff said in the interview. After this attack, Qatar lost confidence, and Hamas suddenly went underground, making it difficult to find.

Trump's statement

Donald Trump also reacted to the attack by saying that the decision to bomb Qatar was that of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

agreed-upon ceasefire

Now both Israel and Hamas have agreed to Trump's 20‑point peace proposal. Along with this, a ceasefire has been announced between the two sides after two years, which has increased the hopes of peace in the Middle East.
