Qatar says 3 government employees killed in car crash in Egypt
Qatar’s embassy in Egypt has confirmed the deaths of three government employees in a car crash near the city of Sharm el-Sheikh in a post on X.
The confirmation follows earlier reports by the Reuters and the Associated Press news agencies, that three Qatari diplomats had been killed near the resort city.
Two other employees were said to have been wounded in the incident, which has also been reported by local news outlets.
Health officials told AP the diplomats were members of the Qatari protocol teams travelling to Sharm el-Sheikh ahead of the Monday high-level summit on Gaza.
The resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh is due to host a global summit aimed at ending the war in Gaza that will be attended by more than 20 world leaders.
Aid deliveries to Gaza expected to be scaled up on Sunday
As the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas enters its second day, displaced Palestinians return to Gaza City — only to find widespread devastation. Aid remains scarce, with chaotic scenes in Khan Younis and growing frustration over unequal distribution.
The UN says over 1,300 trucks are ready to deliver supplies if crossings open. Amid the destruction, Hamas deploys forces to restore order, while some Gazans cling to hope and national pride.
