Qatar’s Amir His Highness Shaikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani arrived in Jeddah on Tuesday to meet Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah, Doha-based Al Jazeera television reported, without giving details of what they plan to discuss.
The meeting is the first of the two absolute monarchs since a major rift between Qatar and Saudi Arabia earlier this year and follows attempts by Doha to broker a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
