Israeli security senior official to lead delegation to Egypt for ceasefire talks

Israeli Security Service Chief Ronen Bar will lead a delegation heading to Egypt tomorrow for talks on the ceasefire deal and control over Rafah crossing, the Times of Israel reported.

Bar will reportedly take part in negotiations about the potential hostage deal which include talks about the names of the Palestinian prisoners that are supposed to be released from Israeli detention centres and prisons.

The talks will also include the future control of the Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt, which has been shut since the Israeli army invaded Rafah in May.

Earlier, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu had listed five conditions for the talks, which included a vow of banning weapon smuggling through Gaza from Egypt.
