Talks Fail as Hamas Strikes Tel Aviv

High-level talks in Cairo aimed at reaching a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas have failed to produce an agreement, leading to continued attacks, including a missile strike on Tel Aviv by Hamas. Despite the lack of progress, a senior U.S. official described the talks as 'constructive,' with ongoing efforts to address key issues such as the Israeli presence in the Philadelphi Corridor. Hamas has rejected new conditions imposed by Israel, demanding adherence to previously agreed terms. Meanwhile, Egypt and other mediators continue to push for a humanitarian ceasefire and the delivery of aid to Gaza. The U.S. remains engaged in the negotiations, with concerns about the conflict potentially escalating into a broader regional war.
