Chairman of Qatar’s Gaza Reconstruction Committee ambassador Mohammed al-Emadi arrived in the Gaza Strip on Sunday evening via Beit Hanoun crossing.

Al-Emadi’s visit is aimed at reactivating the ceasefire talks between Palestinian resistance groups in the Gaza Strip and Israel and finding new mechanisms to bring Qatari financial aid into the enclave.

Qatar had decided to allocate $150 million to the Gaza Strip including $90 million paid for the public employees and $60 million for Gaza’s power plant.

Qatar managed to transfer two payments by the end of 2018 while Israel has repeatedly delayed its approval of the third payment over the weekly protests on the border.

Hamas on 24 January refused to receive the third batch of the Qatari aid in response to Israel’s constant violation of the latest ceasefire agreements.

Over two million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have been living under crippling blockade since 2006 when Hamas won the legislative elections.

Head of the Qatari Committee for the Reconstruction of Gaza Ambassador Mohammed al-Emadi arrived Monday morning in Gaza city via Beit Hanoun (Erez) crossing.

Abdurrahman al-Khaledi Head of the Committee’s Public Relations and Media Department said in a press statement that Emadi will attend the commemoration of Qatar’s National Day in the residential city of Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani in Khan Younis next Tuesday.

He pointed out that a medical delegation arrived along with the Ambassador in order to carry out cochlear implants for over 20 children in Gaza starting from Monday in al-Quds Hospital in the city.

Qatar’s Ambassador Mohammed al-Emadi escorted by four Qatari personalities arrived Monday early morning in Gaza city via Beit Hanoun (Erez) crossing.

The PIC reporter said that Emadi will attend the inauguration ceremony of al-Wataniya Mobile Telecommunication Company in Gaza Strip on Monday. He will hold talks on the Palestinian latest developments and Qatar’s congratulations for the reconciliation agreement between Hamas and Fatah movements.

Media sources also announced that Sheikh Naser al-Thani Ooredoo Group CEO which officially launched its services in Gaza will attend the inauguration ceremony of al-Wataniya Mobile which is one of Ooredoo Group’s companies.
