Gulf reconciliation agreement: What we know so far

Boycott against Qatar lifted, while Doha freezes lawsuits against quartet, sources familiar with the agreement say.

In return for ending the three-year blockade, Doha will freeze legal action against the quartet at international institutions, sources familiar with the agreement say.

The Arab nations that blockaded Qatar for more than three years have lifted the boycott against its Gulf neighbour and Doha in response froze all state-related legal action against the countries, sources familiar with the negotiations say.

Saudi Arabia on Monday announced the restoration of ties with Qatar after the three-and-a-half-year spat saw the kingdom, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Bahrain and Egypt cut diplomatic and trade ties and impose a land, sea and air blockade on the Gulf state.
