Netanyahu and top officials to be briefed by negotiators on Doha hostage talks
Lazar Berman is The Times of Israel's diplomatic reporter
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will convene his top aides and security chiefs at 8:30 p.m. for a briefing by Israel’s hostage negotiating team, the office of one of the ministers tells The Times of Israel.
The team returned from Doha last night, and Netanyahu has yet to decide on a way forward.
The Doha talks are said to be based on a “bridge proposal” by Steve Witkoff, the White House Middle East envoy, to extend the ceasefire’s first phase until April 19 and continue the exchange of living Israeli hostages for Palestinian prisoners.
