Top US and regional envoys joined the third day of peace talks in Egypt to end the Gaza war. Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner and envoy Steve Witkoff met leaders from Qatar and Turkey in Sharm el-Sheikh. The talks aim to secure a ceasefire, release hostages, and rebuild Gaza. Hamas said it had shown “positivity” and shared a list of prisoners it wants freed. Israel expressed “cautious optimism.” Trump said, “There’s a real chance we could do something.” The UN called the plan a “historic opportunity” to end a conflict that has killed over 67,000 Palestinians.
