Israel-Hamas negotiations collapse
Talks to end the war in Gaza have collapsed, bringing to an end the longest round of negotiations since the war started in October 2023.
On Thursday afternoon, Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said it had decided to withdraw its team from Qatar after studying Hamas’s latest response to its proposals.
The fresh negotiations were instigated in part due to significant pressure from Donald Trump, the US president, to reach a deal, following the perceived success of the Iran offensive in June.
