US envoy Witkoff meets with Qatar PM and Israel Gaza talks chief in Sardinia Thursday - War on Gaza
On Wednesday, in Gaza ceasefire talks mediated by Egypt, Qatar and the US in Doha, Hamas submitted its response to an Israeli proposal for a 60-day ceasefire in Gaza.
Hamas proposed amendments related to aid entry to the strip, Israel's military withdrawal maps, and guarantees for a permanent end to the war, according to sources familiar with the Doha talks.
Since launching its genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023, the Israeli army has killed more than 59,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 140,000, mostly children and women.
The talks in Sardinia come as the images of tens of emaciated Palestinians, including children, who have been starved to death by the five-month-old Israeli blockade on aid to Gaza, sent shivers down the spines of millions around the world.
On Monday, 25 Western countries, along with the EU's crisis commissioner, issued a joint statement calling for an immediate end to Israel's war on Gaza and the immediate and unfettered entry of humanitarian aid to the strip.

OPEN// Egyptian, Qatari FMs discuss efforts to secure Gaza ceasefire deal
CAIRO, July 27 (MENA) - Minister of Foreign Affairs, Emigration and Egyptian Expatriates Badr Abdelatty discussed in a phone call with his Qatari counterpart Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, the latest developments in the Gaza Strip, especially in light the efforts made by Egypt and Qatar to strike a ceasefire deal in the Palestinian enclave. The two top diplomats highlighted flagrant crimes and violations committed by Israel against Palestinians, amid the unprecedented humanitarian situation in Gaza, said spokesman for the foreign ministry Tamim Khallaf. Abdelatty and Sheikh Mohammed stressed their full commitment to continuing negotiations between Israel and Hamas to reach a comprehensive ceasefire agreement as soon as possible, which contributes to allowing the access of humanitarian and relief aid into the Palestinian territory and putting an end to the repeated crimes committed by Israel. The pair also addressed the latest updates regarding Egypt's hosting of an international conference on early recovery and reconstruction in Gaza, which aims to implement the Arab-Islamic plan for the reconstruction of the Palestinian enclave. They underlined the importance of sustaining joint coordination between the two countries and mobilizing international backing for establishing a Palestinian state along the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
