Israel has accepted a ceasefire proposal mediated by the USA, Egypt, and Qatar, which includes the release of hostages. It is unclear if Israel's demands for control over corridors will be met.

Hamas accuses Netanyahu of prolonging the war. Antony Blinken sees the talks as the last chance for a breakthrough and will meet in Cairo.

Over 40,000 Palestinians have been killed, and around 110 hostages are still in Hamas' hands. Blinken urges Hamas to accept the compromise proposal for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, which Netanyahu supports.

Talks have been ongoing in Doha, and Blinken hopes to alleviate the suffering of Palestinians and secure the release of hostages. He also plans to travel to Egypt and Qatar.

The ceasefire proposal, a three-phase plan, includes a six-week ceasefire, the release of some hostages, and the permanent cessation of hostilities. It is a critical moment for a ceasefire, as Israeli and Hamas negotiators continue to discuss the terms.

The situation remains tense, with recent attacks and clashes in Israel and Lebanon. The US is concerned about a possible escalation in the region.
