Mossad negotiators were pulled out of Qatar after deadlock in indirect Israeli-Hamas talks for a truce, according to a statement released by the Israeli occupation's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The statement noted that "following the impasse in the negotiations and at the direction of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, David Barnea, head of the Mossad, ordered his team in Doha to return to Israel."

In turn, Axios reporter, Barak Ravid, underscored that "the decision to evacuate the Mossad team was already made yesterday, and this morning the plane sent by the Mossad arrived to pick them up," stressing that "this is a Mossad team that operated a joint operation with the Qataris in Doha last week since the release of the hostages began."

US claims to advocate for truce extension in Gaza: White House

The United States is claiming it is set to persist in advocating for the extension of a truce in Gaza, according to a statement from the White House on Friday. This alleged commitment comes amid "Israel's" renewed offensive on Gaza.

"We continue to work with Israel, Egypt, and Qatar on efforts to extend the humanitarian pause in Gaza," a White House National Security Council spokesperson said yesterday following the end of the truce without extension.

The potential for renewing a truce is facing obstacles because, according to the NSC spokesperson, "Hamas has so far failed to produce a list of hostages that would enable a further extension of the pause." 

US President Joe Biden and his national security team, as stated by the NSC spokesperson, "will continue to remain deeply engaged as we look to free the remaining hostages."
