Israel and Hamas are making a final push for a ceasefire deal in Gaza. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that both sides are close to an agreement. Hamas has not given its official response to the draft because Israel has not submitted maps showing troop withdrawal. The proposed deal includes an initial six-week ceasefire and the release of hostages. Negotiations for the second phase will begin after two weeks.
