Israel and Hamas have resumed indirect negotiations on a ceasefire and hostage release deal in Doha, mediated by the US, Egypt, and Qatar. The talks follow a new proposal from Hamas, which has shown some flexibility. However, significant gaps remain, particularly regarding Hamas's demand for written commitments from mediators for ongoing negotiations. Mossad chief David Barnea led the Israeli delegation, which will return to Doha next week to continue discussions. Meanwhile, Hezbollah has agreed to ceasefire conditions contingent on a Gaza agreement, raising hopes for a potential truce and the release of hostages held by Hamas.
