Egyptian security sources claim Israel gave positive signals about new Gaza proposal

Egypt, one of the mediators in the Gaza ceasefire negotiations, has received positive indications from Israel over a new ceasefire proposal that would include a transitional phase, security sources tell Reuters.

The proposal suggests Hamas release five Israeli hostages each week, sources say.

Asked about the latest proposal, a Palestinian official close to the mediation efforts says, “There are some offers that look better than the previous ones.”

When asked if he expects an announcement today on a breakthrough, he replies: “Maybe not yet.”
