Etipet will receive a delegation of the radical Palestinian group "Hamas" tomorrow in the capital Cairo. which has been at war with Israel in the Gaza Strip since October 7 last year, reported Reuters, quoted by BTA.
The agency first cited information from today on the close-to-the-state Egyptian television channel "Al-Qahera News". Then a representative of "Hamas" confirmed to Reuters that a delegation of the movement is arriving in Cairo tomorrow. Options for a truce in the Gaza Strip will be discussed.
Earlier Reuters reported that CIA Director William Burns had already arrived in the Egyptian capital Cairo to participate in meetings on the conflict between Israel and "Hamas" in Gaza.
For this information, the agency refers to a source in the Egyptian security forces and three of its associates at Cairo airport.
The US, Egypt and Qatar are making efforts to broker a ceasefire between Israel and "Hamas" and for the release of the Israeli hostages held by the Islamist movement, Reuters points out.
The agency said it had not received official confirmation of Burns' arrival in Cairo, saying it was CIA policy not to release information about its director's travels.
Last month, Egyptian representatives tried to revive the truce talks, with Israel drawing up a new proposal, a response to which is awaited from "Hamas", Reuters recalls.
