Hamas to Send Delegation to Cairo for Ceasefire Talks as Israel Threatens Withdrawal

Hamas has rejected Israel's latest counter-proposal in the ongoing negotiations for the release of hostages, citing a failure to address their demands, including the unrestricted return of Palestinians to northern Gaza and a complete withdrawal of IDF troops from the Strip. As tensions persist, top officials are set to convene in Cairo over the weekend to continue ceasefire talks, signaling a continued effort to seek a resolution to the ongoing hostilities and advance negotiations towards achieving a ceasefire agreement.
