Despite US President Joe Biden claiming that Hamas and Israel had agreed on a basic framework for a ceasefire deal, negotiations have stalled. A Hamas source noted that the recent attack on Khan Yunis by Israel indicates a lack of interest in reaching an agreement.
Additionally, a foreign source familiar with the talks revealed that negotiations had already stalled before the recent assassination attempt on Hamas leader Mohammed Deif. Deif, a key figure in Hamas and a target of multiple Israeli assassination attempts, has been a central figure in the conflict.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant held special consultations following the strike on Deif, as the situation in Gaza continued to evolve. The impact of the strike on ceasefire talks in Doha and Cairo remains uncertain.
