Egypt is preparing to present a new ceasefire proposal to Hamas and Israel that would require the terror group to commit to a five-year truce, backed by regional guarantees, Saudi-based channel Al-Sharq reported Thursday, citing negotiators familiar with the talks.
The proposal, expected to be tabled later this week, aims to “balance” demands from both sides and achieve a comprehensive agreement to end the seven-month war, the sources said. A Palestinian official told Al-Sharq that Hamas would pledge to uphold the ceasefire on the condition that regional actors, such as Qatar or Turkey, provide formal guarantees for the pause.
