Latest ceasefire proposal includes 'clear wording' on ceasefire: report

Lebanon's Al Akhbar reports that the latest ceasefire proposal, which Hamas recently sent its response to, includes point similar to key demands from the Palestinian group.

The proposals prepared by CIA Director William Burns in coordination with Qatar, Egypt and Turkey include "clear wording" on ensuring the continuation of a ceasefire between the first and second stages of the deal.

The plan reportedly includes an Israeli withdrawal from the Rafah Crossing area in agreement with Egypt, though it will not have to fully withdraw from the Philadelphi corridor between Egypt and Gaza.
