Egypt has proposed an initial “two-day ceasefire” in Gaza to facilitate the exchange of four Israeli captives held by Hamas for a number of Palestinian detainees, according to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi.
El-Sisi announced the ceasefire as efforts to resolve the ongoing year-long war on Gaza resumed in Qatar, with the participation of the CIA and “Israel’s” Mossad directors. During a press conference in Cairo alongside Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, el-Sisi emphasized that talks should restart within 10 days of implementing the temporary ceasefire to secure “a complete ceasefire and the entry of aid.”

El-Sisi also said that “our brothers in the Strip face a very harsh siege” that has put them “on the brink of famine,” adding that “it is very important that aid enters as soon as possible” to alleviate the dire humanitarian needs.
‘Israel’ dodging comprehensive deal with partial agreements: Source
Hamas rejects “Israel’s” approach to pursuing partial deals instead of committing to a comprehensive ceasefire or withdrawal from Gaza, a senior Palestinian official reaffirmed.
Speaking to media, on October 25, the official explained that the Israeli occupation aims to secure the return of a few captives in exchange for a temporary halt in hostilities and the release of select Palestinian detainees.
Emphasizing the group’s stance, the official stated that Hamas opposes these partial arrangements, as they fail to address the primary demands of the Resistance of a complete ceasefire and full withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.
