Israel will not leave the Salah Al Din corridor, also known as the Philadelphi corridor, along the Gaza-Egypt border, a senior political official said.

The two sides reached a deal on Wednesday that paves the way for a ceasefire and the exchange of hostages and Palestinian detainees, but Israel said on Thursday morning that Hamas created a “last-minute crisis” to sabotage the deal.
