A final proposal for a hostage release and truce deal between Hamas and Israel is being drafted by the mediating parties, the United States, Qatar and Egypt, the Washington Post and Axios reported Monday.
While the outline was drawn up before the IDF recovered the bodies of six deceased hostages from Gaza on Sunday, including U.S. citizen Hersh Goldberg-Polin, it “only adds to the urgency of the matter. You can’t negotiate forever,” a source told the Post.
U.S. President Joe Biden is considering presenting the plan later this week, U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan told families of American hostages during a meeting on Sunday, according to Axios citing two sources with direct knowledge.
