An Israeli delegation headed by Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar will arrive in Cairo tomorrow for talks on a potential hostage-ceasefire deal, al-Araby al-Jadeed newspaper reports.
The Qatari-owned, London-based outlet says the Israeli delegation will include “a special envoy” from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government. No further details are given.
According to the report, Egypt will present a new draft of its proposal after holding talks with officials from the Hamas terror group. The proposal includes “broad lines that can be moved around,” the report says.
The visit comes as Israel waits to hear Hamas’s response to an Egyptian proposal for a ceasefire in the war that began on October 7, 2023, when the terror group led an attack on Israel, killing some 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages to Gaza.
