From Egypt said to refuse to mediate Israel-Hamas prisoner talks
A senior Egyptian intelligence official reportedly tells Hamas’s top political leader Ismail Haniyeh that Egypt would not be the go-between toward a prisoner exchange deal with Israel.
Citing a report in the Gulf newspaper Al-Khaleej, Israel’s Channel 10 says Egypt would lend its support to a different mediator.
It is not clear why Egypt is purportedly refusing to mediate between the two enemies, a role it has filled in past negotiations.
