A response from Palestinian group Hamas on Israel’s ceasefire proposal revealed by US President Joe Biden on Friday is still awaited, White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters, Reuters reports.
“We are waiting for a response from Hamas” through the Qatari mediators, Sullivan said.
CIA Director Bill Burns will be in Doha to consult with Qatari mediators on the Gaza ceasefire proposal, Sullivan added.
Qatar said it had delivered the Israeli ceasefire proposal to Hamas that reflected a three-phase proposal presented by Biden, and that the paper was now much closer to the positions of both sides.
