Hamas delegation heading to Cairo to meet Egyptian, Qatari officials in ongoing talks
A delegation from the Hamas terror group is heading to Cairo to meet with Egyptian and Qatari officials for ongoing talks for a truce and hostage release.
A Hamas source tells AFP that its delegation is slated to meet with Egyptian and Qatari mediators the day after a group of Israeli officials, including the Shin Bet and Mossad chiefs, met with them separately.
According to Hebrew media reports Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declined to send the Israeli delegation back to Cairo tomorrow.
Mediators in Egypt are said to be racing to secure a ceasefire before Israel proceeds with a wide-scale ground operation in Rafah.
