Qatar’s Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani is expected to attend Gaza ceasefire talks in Cairo on Saturday, a source familiar with the negotiations tells Reuters.

A Hamas delegation arrived in Cairo earlier today to meet with negotiators, though it stressed it will not officially participate in the latest round of talks.

A high-level Israeli delegation was in Cairo this week and Doha last week to discuss the latest offer for a deal with US, Egyptian and Qatari negotiators.
