Mediators and Hamas have arrived in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, for talks on a new ceasefire, as Israel is reported to be demanding reassurances on the hostages’ fate before attending.
An unnamed US official has said Israel has “more or less accepted” the deal. But Israeli media say Hamas is refusing to confirm which of its hostages are still alive, so Israel will not attend.
The US says the six-week pause would see the release of more Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners.
