Hot moments are being experienced following the negotiations regarding the ceasefire in Gaza in Doha, the capital of Qatar.

After Israeli President Herzog's statement, "These are critical days for the release of the hostages. I support those participating in the negotiations and hope they reach an agreement soon," U.S. President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu had a phone call regarding the negotiations for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

THEY DISCUSSED THE CEASEFIRE

U.S. President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu held a phone conversation. An unnamed source stated that the discussions focused on the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and the release of hostages.

"CEASEFIRE IS VERY, VERY CLOSE"

U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan stated in an interview with U.S. media that the parties are "very, very close" to reaching an agreement in the ceasefire talks, adding, "We are determined to use every day we are in office to get this done."

James David Vance, the elected Vice President of the U.S., also mentioned in a statement to U.S. media that he expects an agreement regarding the release of American hostages to be announced in the last days of the Biden administration, perhaps within the last day or two.

The Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, citing political sources, claimed that 90% of the details regarding the prisoner exchange agreement between Israel and Hamas have been agreed upon.

In a statement made yesterday by the Israeli Prime Minister's Office, it was announced that a delegation led by Mossad Director David Barnea and Shin Bet (Shabak) Director Ronen Bar would travel to Doha, the capital of Qatar, for negotiations.
