Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al Thani says ‘good progress in past few days’ on potential agreement of large-scale release
Only minor differences between Hamas and Israel remain to be resolved before a hostage deal can be struck, the Qatari prime minister has said.
Qatar has been at the centre of mediation efforts to reach an agreement that would see large numbers of hostages released, starting with children and women. A humanitarian pause lasting as long as five days would be agreed to allow the transport of the hostages.
