Mediators from the U.S., Qatar, and Egypt announced on Friday that two-day talks aimed at ending the Gaza war have concluded. They plan to meet again in Cairo next week to finalize a ceasefire deal. The discussions were described as positive, with both sides agreeing in principle to a plan introduced by President Joe Biden. The proposal includes a temporary ceasefire, the release of hostages, and a phased withdrawal of Israeli forces. As the war approaches 315 days, international pressure is mounting to reach an agreement and prevent a wider regional conflict.
