U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Egypt to participate in indirect peace talks between Israel and Hamas. The negotiations, mediated by Egypt and Qatar, focus on a U.S.-backed plan to end the Gaza war. Hamas seeks guarantees against renewed conflict after hostage releases, while Israel insists on hostage return and Hamas disarmament. The proposed plan includes international governance of Gaza and U.S./UK oversight, aiming for broader Middle East peace.
