The Prime Minister’s Office confirms that the four-way meeting about a possible major hostage deal between the US, Israel, Qatar and Egypt took place “in Europe” and calls the discussions “constructive.”

“There are still significant gaps that the sides will discuss this week in additional meetings,” the PMO adds.
