According to recent reports, Hamas is willing to reconsider its stance on requiring Israel to commit to a permanent ceasefire before signing an agreement for a temporary truce. This development comes as part of intensified efforts towards reaching a deal. However, it's worth noting that the group has long demanded a permanent ceasefire, which Israel finds unacceptable. Osama Hamdan stated that there are no new concrete proposals in a document sent to Israel this week, but some ideas were proposed to overcome Israeli reticence about a cease-fire. Additionally, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to send the head of the Mossad intelligence service to Doha.

    1. It was agreed that next week Israeli negotiators will travel to Doha to continue the talks. There are still gaps between the parties.
    1. The Israeli side has made every effort to complicate matters and obstruct progress.
    2. If the response is positive, then we will discuss these ideas in detail because we will enter into the implementation discussion of these ideas, which... will not take long.
    3. Ultimately, a fair and suitable prisoner exchange deal must be completed.
    4. The goal of negotiations is to cease the aggression, withdraw forces and allow the Palestinian people to rebuild Gaza, including shelter, relief and other details.
