Indirect negotiations between Israel and Hamas for a truce in Gaza they will resume”in the next few hours” in Cairo, after the war cabinet of the Jewish state gave the green light to send a delegation. This was reported by Egyptian security sources, underlining that “Egypt has received a communication in which the Israeli side requests the resumption of negotiations for a truce in Gaza and hostage exchange” for Palestinian prisoners.
The indirect dialogue between Israel and Hamas – mediated by Egypt, Qatar and the United States – “will be resumed” from where the 9th left off, and “will not start again from the beginning”, added the Egyptian sources, clarifying that this means “sit at the table to address the latest truce proposal that has been approved by Israeland then by Hamas, before the Israeli side suddenly backtracked and withdrew its approval.” Yesterday Egypt had threatened to withdraw from its role as mediator due to accusations of mishandling the latest round of negotiations, ended in failure.
