There has been no progress on a Gaza ceasefire and negotiations over captives in Qatar, Al Jazeera reports citing Haaretz.

The report said that despite Israel’s renewed military pressure on Gaza and an attempted assassination on Hamas senior figure Mohammed Sinwar, the Palestinian group has not compromised its position on a US-proposed plan.

“Israel’s position is rigid, Hamas hasn’t folded, the Americans have lost interest, Trump is on his way home, and Witkoff is no longer involved. He’s waiting to hear what we want, and since we don’t want anything, he has nothing left to do,” one source was quoted as saying.
