Qatar’s prime minister has said that lasting peace in Gaza will depend on Israel and Hamas acting in “good faith”, days into a fragile truce in the Palestinian territory mediated by the Gulf state, AFP reports.

“If they are embarking in this in good faith, this will last and hopefully will lead to phase two, will lead to a permanent ceasefire,” Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al-Thani told the World Economic Forum in Davos.
