Hamas made a significant adjustment in its position over a potential hostage release deal with Israel, both a senior US official and a source in the Israeli negotiating team confirmed.
“The proposal put forward by Hamas includes a very significant breakthrough,” the source said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
The US source added that there were still outstanding issues relating to the implementation of the agreement and that a deal would take some time.
