Qatar has been given an extra 48 hours to comply with a list of demands issued by Arab nations that have cut ties to the country, including that news network Al Jazeera be shut down.
It's the worst diplomatic crisis in the region since Iraq's 1990 invasion of Kuwait, and has seen Qataris expelled from Gulf countries and transport links with the country cut.
What are the demands?
They include:
Limiting diplomatic ties to Iran
Severing ties to all "terrorist organisations", including the Muslim Brotherhood and Lebanon's Hezbollah
Expelling Turkish troops now stationed in Qatar
Paying reparations of an unknown amount and submitting to auditing
As well, Bahrain, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates want Qatar's international news network Al Jazeera to be shut down.
Qatar has previously rejected the demands as violations of its sovereignty.
