Three employees of Qatar's Amiri Diwan, its top government body, were killed in a car crash near Egypt's Red Sea resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh, Qatar's embassy in Egypt said in a post on X on Sunday.

The embassy said two others were wounded and were receiving necessary medical treatment at the city's hospital.

It remains unclear whether the diplomats were members of the Qatari negotiating team, which, alongside Egyptian officials in Sharm el-Sheikh, helped broker last week’s agreement between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas group regarding the first phase of US President Donald Trump’s plan for Gaza.

The Egyptian city is set to host a global summit on Monday aimed at finalizing the agreement.

OIC Condemns Plans to Build 356 Settlement Units in Occupied Jerusalem

OIC Condemns Plans to Build 356 Settlement Units in Occupied Jerusalem

The General Secretariat of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) strongly condemned the Israeli occupation authorities' approval of plans to construct 356 new settlement units in the occupied city of Jerusalem.

According to SPA, OIC affirmed that this constitutes a war crime under international law and relevant United Nations resolutions, particularly UN Security Council Resolution No. 2334 and the International Court of Justice's advisory opinion.

The OIC general secretariat warned of the grave consequences of the ongoing and escalating violence and terrorism by extremist settler militias in the occupied West Bank, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces.

It also called on the international community to assume its responsibilities and take immediate and decisive measures to put an end to impunity and hold perpetrators accountable for the crimes committed against the Palestinian people, their land, and their property.
