Hamas delegation has made 'noticeable progress' on ceasefire talks in Egypt: Report

The Hamas delegation in Egypt has made “noticeable progress” in ceasefire talks after months of deadlock, according to Egyptian media.

The Egyptian state Al-Qahera news announced on Saturday that Hamas and Israel had reached a consensus on many of the disputed points, though it didn’t elaborate on what those were. Other sources dispute this, including some Israeli officials. One Israeli official told the Associated Press that even a deal to release the roughly 100 hostages still held by Hamas wouldn’t prevent Israel’s invasion of Rafah, nor end the war.
