Israeli Broadcasting Authority: The Cabinet Approved the Outline of the Egyptian Proposal

The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported that the Cabinet has approved the outlines of the Egyptian proposal. Insider sources indicated that the next few hours will be "crucial," according to the Israeli Broadcasting Authority. It is expected that CIA Director William Burns will arrive in Israel tomorrow, Monday, to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in an effort to salvage the negotiations in Cairo. Qatar, along with the United States and Egypt, has been facilitating talks for months aimed at ending hostilities in the Gaza Strip. The latest round of discussions between mediators and the Palestinian movement concluded in Cairo on Sunday, with Israel and Hamas publicly exchanging blame over the failure to reach an agreement.
