The Lebanese newspaper al-Akhbar reports that Hamas’s preliminary remarks on the American plan for Gaza were conveyed to President Donald Trump by the emir of Qatar in a phone call yesterday.

The paper also reports, citing its sources, that American officials made clear to Cairo that the Trump plan is “the last opportunity” before they allow Israel to carry out a large-scale military operation in Gaza to eliminate Hamas and other terrorist organizations there.
