: Egypt and Qatar received a response from the Palestinian groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad regarding a recent ceasefire and hostage swap proposal, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said late Tuesday, Anadolu Agency reported.
On Monday, the United Nations Security Council adopted a resolution supporting a Gaza cease-fire proposal outlined by US President Joe Biden. While Israel insists on a temporary cessation of hostilities, the factions demand an end to the war, the withdrawal of the Israeli army, the return of displaced persons to their homes, sufficient humanitarian aid and the reconstruction of Gaza as part of any prisoner exchange agreement.
Israel has faced international condemnation amid its continued brutal offensive on Gaza since an Oct 7, 2023 attack by Hamas, despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire.
