Persistent attempts to find rapprochement format to ceasefire: Source
A Palestinian source told Al Mayadeen that positive updates in finding a rapprochement formula related to the ceasefire are being developed.
An informed source on mediated negotiations regarding a ceasefire in Gaza stated on Sunday that positive developments have been witnessed in talks.
The source relayed to Al Mayadeen that there have been persistent attempts to find a rapprochement format related to the ceasefire agreement.
This came after Hamas announced that its delegation was leaving Cairo to hold talks with its leadership in Doha, Qatar.
The head of Hamas' Political Bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, had affirmed earlier on Sunday, the Islamic Resistance movement's positive approach to the current round of negotiations in Cairo. Hamas discussed the issue with Palestinian factions and mediators, holding "concentrated meetings" among its leaders in Gaza and elsewhere, before sending its negotiating delegation to Egypt, Haniyeh added.
The delegation was informed of the movement's "positive and flexible" position on a deal, the top official explained.

However, negotiators were informed on the importance of prioritizing an end to the aggression on the Palestinian people; an "essential and rational" stance, Haniyeh added.
He said that an end to the Israeli war on Gaza would lay the groundwork for a more "stable future".
Haniyeh questioned the viability of an agreement if a ceasefire is not its initial result.
"The world has become a hostage to an extremist government, plagued by a vast array of political problems and crimes committed in Gaza," Haniyeh underlined.
