Egypt to send updated Gaza ceasefire proposal to Hamas after 'positive atmosphere' talks
Tomorrow, Egypt will send an updated proposal for a truce agreement to the Palestinian militia Hamas after negotiations held by Egyptian, Israeli and American delegations in Cairo, which took place in a “positive atmosphere.”
The Israeli delegation left the Egyptian capital after arriving yesterday with the American delegation, after a series of “intense talks” during which they “managed to bring together” the divergent positions, according to the Egyptian source close to the conversations, who requested anonymity due to the sensitivity of the issue.
During today's dialogue, the Israeli delegation presented to Egypt the updated proposals regarding the presence of the Israeli army in the Philadelphia Corridor, which connects Gaza to Egypt, and at the Rafah border crossing, which has been closed since last May.
Meanwhile, the mediating countries – the United States, Egypt and Qatar – “are continuing preparations for holding a new meeting on Sunday, but it is not yet clear whether Hamas will participate in this meeting,” the source said. (Efe)
