‘We’re Closer Now’: US On Israel-Hamas Deal To Free Gaza Hostages

0


Israel and Hamas are getting close to a deal that would secure the release of the hostages held in Gaza, believes the United States after a similar report stating that the two parties are close to a breakthrough was denied by the US and Israel last week. 

On Monday, US President Joe Biden said that he believed an accord was near, reported Reuters. “We’re closer now than we’ve been before,” said White House spokesman John Kirby. 

Following the October 7 surprise attacks by Hamas on Israel that killed 1,200 people, the Palestinian militant group escaped with 240 hostages.
