Israel Will Send Mediators to Talks Aimed at Gaza Ceasefire

Israel will send mediators on Sunday to restart talks with Hamas, after the militant group said it was ready to “immediately” negotiate a proposal by US President Donald Trump for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza.

While Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said unspecified changes sought by Hamas were “unacceptable to Israel,” it added in a statement that an Israeli delegation would go to Doha for “close talks and to continue negotiations.” Hamas has representatives in Qatar’s capital, though the two sides don’t negotiate directly.
