In a significant development in the Middle East, Hamas has submitted a positive response to a ceasefire proposal mediated by the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt. The response, which was conveyed by a Qatari mediator and received by the Mossad, includes Hamas's conditions for a ceasefire and a hostage deal. These conditions include a full ceasefire, an end to the offensive in Gaza, the release of Israeli hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, promises to rebuild Gaza, and the provision of humanitarian aid. The response follows the death of an IDF officer in Gaza. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office is currently studying Hamas's response. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has stated that the proposal aims to expand the previous pause in fighting and to surge humanitarian relief to Gaza.
