JAKARTA - CIA Director William Burns is rumored to be traveling to Israel to discuss the ceasefire and the release of hostages.

NBC News on Monday 6 May reported a source saying in discussions in Doha, Qatar that Burn would fly to Israel after being in Cairo, Egypt in serious negotiations over a ceasefire between the Israeli-Hamas military.

The source also said Burn had an uncertain schedule but was likely to be in Israel in the near future.

After signs of progress on the Israeli-Hamas conflict in Palestine, in discussions in Cairo Hamas' demands were again rejected by Israel.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also insisted on continuing his military aggression in Palestine and rejecting international pressure to stop the war.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant argued Hamas was not serious about the deal towards a ceasefire. He stressed, there will be major operations in Rafah and other places across Gaza in the near future.

Monday, May 6 morning local time, the Israeli military again urged civilians in eastern Rafah to evacuate. The eastern Rafah is known to be in southernmost Gaza.

The eastern Rafah is a place of more than half of Gaza's 2.3 million population who are now under pressure from Israeli attacks.
