US President Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy has said that he will travel to the Middle East to be part of what he described as an inspection team deployed in and along the Gaza Strip to ensure ceasefire compliance, Reuters reports.

In an interview with Fox News, the envoy, Steve Witkoff, also said he believed all countries in the region could get “on board” to normalise ties with Israel.

Asked to identify specific countries, he singled out Qatar, saying the Gulf country was a critical player in reaching the Gaza ceasefire deal.
