Negotiations to reach a new ceasefire deal in Gaza continue in Doha on Monday, with delegations present from Hamas, Egypt, Qatar, the US and the Israelis. Sources gave a comprehensive review of the proposals that were discussed on Sunday, which marked the first direct negotiations since August. The latest plan includes a temporary truce lasting between 48 and 72 hours, followed by a 10-day period in which Hamas provides the names of five hostages it intends to release. In turn, Israel would submit a list of the Palestinian prisoners it is ready to free, sources told The National. Also during those 10 days, the two sides and the International Committee of the Red Cross would arrange the mechanics and logistics to enact the exchange.
