JAKARTA - Egyptian state media on Sunday reported that Israeli negotiations and Palestinian resistance group Hamas reached positive progress to reach a ceasefire agreement in Gaza, but warned against believing detailed reports of possible deals.
"A high-level source has confirmed positive progress in negotiations to reach a ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip," reports Al Qahera News.
However, the unnamed source added that what was reported by the media regarding the provisions of the agreement was inaccurate.
The source confirmed that Egypt's security delegations resumed its consultation with all parties, adding that the return of Palestinians displaced to the northern Gaza Strip was one of the conditions in the agreement.
