Ceasefire talks: Progress made in Gaza ceasefire talks but still work to do on ‘final details,’ US official says

CNN  

CNN — Negotiators continue to work to strike a deal for a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of Israeli hostages, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said Monday, following a massive exchange of fire between Israel and the Iran-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah over the weekend. The US official said the current proposal calls for an Israeli military withdrawal from “densely populated areas” in Gaza, and that the current debate is focused on what parts of the Philadelphi corridor qualify as densely-populated versus unpopulated, where the IDF will maintain a presence in the first phase of an agreement. However, the Hamas negotiating delegation left Cairo on Sunday publicly reiterating the group’s demand that any agreement must include “a permanent ceasefire, a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the freedom of return of residents to their areas, relief and reconstruction, and a serious exchange deal.” The US official said despite public comments by Hamas, “negotiators believe Hamas may be more flexible on an Israeli presence during the first phase of an agreement.” Displaced Palestinians walk on a street covered with stagnant wastewater in Deir el-Balah, central Gaza, on July 19. A second US official said talks in Cairo were “constructive and were conducted in a spirit on all sides to reach a final and implementable agreement,” and that lower-level working group talks would continue in the coming days to “further address remaining issues and details.” On Thursday, the US and Egypt met with Israel to try to narrow remaining gaps and clarify issues in the text of bridging proposal, according to a source familiar with the matter.
