According to Hamdan, the Israeli side has rejected a proposed draft ceasefire deal put forth by the United States. The current talks in Paris center on critical issues related to both a prisoner swap and a humanitarian ceasefire.

The draft deal, as proposed by the US, has sparked discussions about the number of prisoners involved. However, this aspect is viewed by some as a stalling tactic employed by the occupying regime, potentially aimed at preparing for a future assault on the Gaza Strip.

In a related development, the Israeli regime’s war cabinet has authorized a delegation to travel to Qatar for further discussions on a potential ceasefire agreement.

Reports from Riyadh-based Al Arabiya TV indicate that Doha recently hosted a fresh round of negotiations focused on a Gaza ceasefire. Representatives from the Israeli regime, Hamas, and mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and the US participated in these talks.

Earlier in February, high-level negotiations took place in Cairo, involving American, Qatari, and Israeli representatives. The goal was to find a resolution to halt the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Unfortunately, these prior discussions did not yield concrete results.

Despite international pressure urging the Israeli regime to cease its assault on Gaza, reports persist of continued military actions in the southern Gaza Strip, raising concerns about potential war crimes. Additionally, there are indications of plans to exacerbate the humanitarian crisis, particularly in Rafah city. (ILKHA)
