Two Years of War: Can US-Drafted Plan Bring Gaza Ceasefire?
On the eve of the Gaza war's second anniversary, Israeli and Hamas officials are engaged in indirect talks at an Egyptian coastal resort over a US-drafted peace plan aimed at ending the conflict. The discussions reportedly focus on the first stage of a potential ceasefire - including a partial Israeli troop withdrawal and a hostage-prisoner exchange. According to Egyptian state media, US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff and Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner are also expected to participate, signaling renewed American involvement in the region's diplomacy.
