Qatar has reportedly pledged $5 million to the Gaza government to support reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas. On 4 May, the Palestinian Ma’an News Agency quoted Ismail Radwan, the Gaza government’s minister of endowment, as saying the money was to support “community reconciliation”, especially focused on families who have lost relatives to the Fatah-Hamas conflict. The Qatar News Agency made no mention of the donation, which was reported on the same day as Emir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani met Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas at the emiri diwan in Doha.
