Qatar’s foreign ministry says talks are “moving toward” an agreement for Hamas to release Israeli men that the terror group took hostage on October 7.
“Our negotiations regarding women and children take paramount position within the discussions, but obviously we are moving toward civilian men being released,” ministry spokesman Majed Al-Ansari tells CNN.
He also says negotiations are being held on the potential release of abducted Israeli soldiers and the prospect of a “longer truce” that could “lead to a ceasefire.”
