White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre says the Joe Biden administration is 'confident' that upcoming Gaza ceasefire talks will move forward, despite Hamas' current decision to abstain.
The mother of a British hostage held by Hamas in Gaza has pleaded with diplomats to get a peace deal done ahead of today’s crucial ceasefire summit in Qatar .
The diplomats urged Iran not to jeopardise a peace deal. Israel has been braced for an attack by Iran since a Hamas leader was assassinated in Tehran last month. ‘I feel that it is crucial at this pivotal moment in the negotiations to show their commitment to all the hostages.’ ‘We need a deal which will create a positive dynamic and prevent a further deterioration of a situation that is already dire.’
