Israel has not received a draft proposal for a deal to halt the fighting in Gaza and return its hostages, an Israeli official says.

Earlier, an official briefed on the negotiations said Qatar had handed Israel and Hamas a “final” draft of a ceasefire and hostage release agreement designed to end the war in Gaza.
