Earlier, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced that Israel has accepted a proposal to bridge gaps in ceasefire negotiations and urged Hamas to accept it ahead of further negotiations expected later.
Speaking to reporters in Tel Aviv, Blinken stated, "In a very constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu today, he confirmed to me that Israel accepts the bridging proposal and supports it. It's now incumbent on Hamas to do the same."
"And then the parties, with the help of the mediatorsthe United States, Egypt, and Qatarhave to come together and complete the process of reaching clear understandings about how they'll implement the commitments they've made under this agreement. But the next important step is for Hamas to say yes, and then, in the coming days, for all of the expert negotiators to get together to work on clear understandings on implementing the agreement," he added.
