An Arab official denies reports that Qatar urged Hamas to reject an Egyptian proposal for a hostage-ceasefire deal, claiming that Israeli officials are manufacturing the reports to deflect blame from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The official also criticized the coverage of the 'Qatargate' scandal in Israel, calling it journalistic propaganda for political purposes.
