Israel to send delegation to Qatar for Gaza ceasefire talks
ISRAEL, JUL 7 – Israel sends a delegation to Qatar to restart ceasefire and hostage talks after 21 months of conflict, with a US-backed 60-day truce proposal on the table, officials said.
- On Sunday, Israel revealed plans to dispatch representatives to Qatar to resume ceasefire negotiations with Hamas following almost 21 months of ongoing conflict in Gaza.
- This development follows the collapse of the last ceasefire in March and continued intensified Israeli military operations responding to the October 7, 2023 attack.
- Hamas has responded positively but seeks substantial amendments including Israeli troop redeployments and exclusive UN control over humanitarian aid, which Israel deems unacceptable.
- US President Donald Trump announced that Israel has agreed to the terms required for a ceasefire lasting 60 days, intended to support hostage negotiations and temporarily halt fighting.
- The renewed talks occur amid rising civilian casualties, contested aid distribution, and ongoing tensions, suggesting challenging negotiations with uncertain outcomes ahead.
