Jordan, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia reject US request for peacekeepers in Gaza

The governments of Jordan, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia have declined a proposal from the United States to participate in a post-war peacekeeping mission in the Gaza Strip, according to a report by The Times of Israel.

According to Report, which cites TASS, two sources confirmed this information to the publication. An Arab source explained that the refusal by Jordan, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia was due to concerns that the peacekeeping mission would be perceived as "protecting Israel from the Palestinians."

Egypt and the United Arab Emirates have confirmed their intention to participate in the mission. However, they have set several conditions, including a requirement that the mission operates within the framework of the "two states for two peoples" concept, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejects.
