Final Ceasefire Draft Presented to Israel and Hamas After Breakthrough in Doha

 


Mediators have presented Israel and Hamas with a final draft of a ceasefire deal aimed at ending the war in Gaza, following a breakthrough in negotiations held in Doha. The draft, which includes provisions for the release of hostages and a cessation of hostilities, was handed over after midnight talks involving Israel's spy chiefs, President-elect Trump's Middle East envoy, and Qatar’s prime minister.

The negotiations, which have been ongoing for over a year with the involvement of the United States, Qatar, and Egypt, reached a pivotal moment early Monday. U.S. President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed the urgent need for a ceasefire and the release of hostages in a recent phone call.

While both sides have yet to confirm the final draft, officials have described the progress as promising. The next 24 hours are seen as crucial to sealing the deal before President Biden leaves office.
