A meeting between Egyptian intelligence chief Hassan Rashad and a Hamas delegation in Cairo wraps up after several hours, with “things headed toward a breakthrough,” says Al-Araby Al Jadeed, citing Egyptian sources.
The Hamas delegation is headed by deputy politburo chief Khalil al-Hayya.
Efforts by Qatar and Egypt, as well as US special envoy Steve Witkoff, have resolved some of the outstanding issues, says the Qatari-owned outlet. The sources say that a list of international organizations have been approved to bring in fuel and medical equipment, but Israel has yet to give the green light to bringing in caravans and more tents.
If Israel gives its approval for the caravans tomorrow, say the sources, there is time for Hamas to announce on Friday the names of the 3 hostages to be released the next day.
