Netanyahu says he will send a negotiating team to Doha to begin indirect negotiations aimed at halting the war in Gaza

Israel and Hamas are moving toward a cease-fire agreement following a shift in the balance of power after Israel’s 12-day war with Iran.

Israel will send a delegation to Qatar on Sunday for talks on a possible Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal, although Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office said the changes requested by Hamas to a ceasefire proposal were unacceptable.
