3 June 2024 16:44 BST
US President Joe Biden is expected to speak with the emir of Qatar later on Monday to attempt to finalise the three-stage ceasefire deal unveiled at the White House on Friday, according to two officials familiar.
Two sources familiar with the negotiations, reported by the Israeli daily Haaretz, said US officials are seeking their Qatari counterparts' help to get Hamas to accept the proposal - which the Israeli government has so far rejected.
