Israel agrees with the US proposal for the return of the hostages based on the outline proposed by White House special envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said. “This proposal was recently conveyed to Hamas through the mediators, but so far it continues to adhere to its refusal,” the Prime Minister’s office added. It added that Israel’s negotiating team would return for consultations after a week of “hectic contacts” in Doha.
