0:57Now PlayingInternational mediators of Gaza cease-fire talks are set to meet with Israeli negotiators on Thursday, a fresh attempt at striking a deal they hope will ward off a potential escalation of violence in the Middle East.
While Hamas representatives are not due to be present at the discussions in the Qatari capital of Doha, two officials say mediators will brief the Iran-backed group shortly after the gathering. The people asked not to be identified because they aren’t authorized to speak publicly.
The talks will bring together senior delegates from the US, Qatar and Egypt, the intermediaries between the warring sides, with the goal of at least pausing the more than 10-month Israel-Hamas conflict that has ignited hostilities on other regional fronts.
The various parties are still working on the basis of a three-stage proposal presented by US President Joe Biden at the end of May, which aims to suspend hostilities, free more than 100 hostages held by Hamas in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and transfer more aid to the ravaged Gaza Strip.
