Israeli and regional sources indicate ongoing efforts toward a partial ceasefire deal in Gaza. Israeli Channel 12 and other informed sources report a possibility of a partial hostage deal soon as part of a broader plan, with some divisions within the Israeli negotiating team on proceeding with such an agreement. Concurrently, Egypt is actively engaging with all parties to overcome disagreements and reach a temporary truce in Gaza, alongside efforts to facilitate humanitarian aid delivery. Palestinian factions, including Hamas, are meeting in Cairo, although Hamas has denied receiving new proposals, emphasizing ongoing mediator contacts to secure aid and resume negotiations. Reports suggest that U.S. President Donald Trump may announce a ceasefire deal involving Israeli withdrawal and the deployment of 80,000 Egyptian troops, supplemented by Jordanian and Saudi forces, until a Palestinian police force is established.
