President Biden is considering a final proposal for a hostage-release and ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, following the recent murder of six hostages, including an American. National security adviser Jake Sullivan informed families of U.S. hostages that an updated proposal might be presented soon, with hopes for a resolution in the coming weeks. Concurrently, Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi expressed support for any ceasefire deal acceptable to Palestinians and Hamas, emphasizing the need for humanitarian aid in Gaza. Biden also announced that participants in the ceasefire talks have reached fundamental agreements on the principles of the deal, highlighting an optimistic outlook for negotiations. Despite earlier stalled discussions, ongoing efforts in Cairo are aimed at finalizing the agreement soon. The evolving dynamics point to increased urgency and international interest in resolving the conflict and facilitating humanitarian support.
