Israel’s mid-level negotiating team has returned to Israel from Cairo, an Israeli official tells The Times of Israel.
The lead negotiators, headed by Mossad chief David Barnea and Shin Bet head Ronen Bar, are expected in Cairo later this week for a summit meant to try to hammer out a hostage-for-ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel.
