  • Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal 'could be hours away' as negotiators meet in Qatar - Israeli official says negotiations are in 'advanced stages' - with a deal possible in 'hours, days or more'

The article discusses the ongoing negotiations for a ceasefire in Gaza and the potential release of hostages, which are taking place in Qatar. Mediators from the U.S., Egypt, and Qatar are involved in these talks, aiming to secure a deal that could see a temporary halt to the conflict between Israel and Hamas. The discussions are critical as they could lead to the release of some of the 137 hostages still held by Hamas, with an agreement possibly being just hours away. The urgency of the situation is underscored by the dire humanitarian conditions in Gaza, with shortages of food, water, and medical supplies, and the international community's push for a resolution to the violence that has claimed over 27,000 Palestinian lives since October 7, 2023.
