ISRAEL
EM BulletHomepagemarkets-real-timePolitical Market NewsPolitical RiskCommoditiesPolitical Risk BulletEnergy BulletsBulletEmerging Market News

Sky News Arabiya posts on X: "Egyptian official source: Positive progress in the truce negotiations in Gaza." During his visit to Israel on 1 May, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken sought to encourage Hamas to accept the hostage-for-temporary ceasefire deal that is on the table, saying that Israel has made “very important” compromises and that There’s no time for further haggling. The deal is there,”

  • The latest comments from Hamas appear to be somewhat mixed. NYT reports that "On Wednesday night, a spokesman for the group, Osama Hamdan, said in an interview on Lebanese television, “Our position on the current negotiating paper is negative.” But the Hamas press office later clarified those comments. “The negative position does not mean negotiations have stopped,” the press office said. “There is a back and forth issue.”"
  • The comments come as the Israeli war cabinet is set to meet at 1830 local time (1130ET, 1630BST, 1730CET). The Times of Israel reports the meeting is set "to discuss the next steps in negotiations to achieve a hostage deal, an official in the Prime Minister’s Office tells The Times of Israel. A meeting of the war cabinet was canceled on Tuesday. Tonight’s meeting will be followed by a gathering of the full security cabinet."
