Qatar's Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani met with Iran's newly appointed Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Tehran on Monday, amid growing turbulence in the region.

The visit comes as the latest round of peace talks between Israel and Hamas ended without a deal, and strikes ramp up between Israel and Hezbollah, the Iran-backed Lebanese Shia group.

Along with other nations, Qatar has been trying to broker a ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel that could see strikes on Gaza stop and Israeli hostages return home.
