A Hamas delegation has arrived in Egypt for what appear to be do-or-die negotiations on a ceasefire, with the movement’s spokesman, Osama Hamdan saying there have been “some forward steps”.
Israel reportedly gives Hamas one week to agree to a ceasefire and prisoner-captive exchange deal, threatening it will launch its ground invasion of Rafah otherwise. The United Nations chief has called on Israel and Hamas to reach a truce deal.
