Gaza Mediators 'Working Very Hard' to Revive Truce Plan
Egypt, Qatar, and the US aim to broker a humanitarian ceasefire including hostage releases and aid access after previous talks failed, targeting a 60-day halt in hostilities.
- On Tuesday, August 12, 2025, Egypt said it is working with Qatar and the United States to broker a 60-day ceasefire, with a senior Hamas delegation meeting in Cairo on Wednesday.
- Before this push, last month, negotiations in Doha failed after more than two weeks, following a collapsed short-lived truce earlier this year and the October 7, 2023 attack.
- Egypt said, `We are working very hard now in full cooperation with the Qataris and Americans`, aiming for a ceasefire with hostage releases and aid flow to Gaza.
- At the same time, US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff blamed Hamas for the deadlock and said Washington would consider alternative options.
- Next, a senior Hamas delegation led by Khalil al-Hayya will meet Egyptian officials on Wednesday to discuss recent negotiations, as diplomacy remains stalled since July.
