Israel has offered Hamas leaders safe passage out of Gaza as part of an extensive cease-fire agreement, according to a CNN report early on Tuesday.
The Network quoted two senior officials familiar with the negotiations who said the offer was made by Mossad Chief David Barnea in meetings with CIA chief William Barns and the Qatar Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Jassim Al Thani, when they met in Warsaw.
Hamas intends to maintain security control in Gaza during an interim period, a senior Hamas official told Reuters, adding he could not commit to the group disarming - positions that reflect the difficulties facing U.S. plans to secure an end to the war.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan may have publicly maintained a harsh tone against Israel since the October 7, 2023, attacks, but signs on the ground suggest a shift is underway.
Hamas called on mediators on Friday to push for the next steps under the ceasefire in Gaza, including reopening the border, letting in aid, beginning reconstruction, setting up an administration and completing Israel's withdrawal.
