Saudi TV channel Al Arabiya reports that mediators, as part of the talks for a ceasefire in Gaza, have proposed a 48-hour humanitarian pause. This is on top of the existing 10-hour daytime pauses in the Strip.

According to the unsourced report, which has not been confirmed by any other outlet, Hamas agreed, but Israel refused, and the mediators’ pressure continues.
