Israel is set to send a delegation to Doha on Monday to negotiate an extension of the ceasefire agreement with Hamas, following a series of talks held in Cairo. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that the delegation will travel to Qatar’s capital as part of efforts to further advance negotiations.
This decision follows discussions between Hamas and Egyptian officials in Cairo on Saturday, where the two sides worked on the next phase of the ceasefire agreement. A Hamas statement emphasized the importance of adhering to all terms of the current deal, particularly focusing on the opening of border crossings and the unrestricted entry of relief supplies into Gaza.
Hamas spokesperson Abdel Latif al-Qanoua expressed optimism, noting that signs were promising for the commencement of talks aimed at advancing the second phase of the ceasefire.
