Hamas’ top leader Ismail Haniyeh travelled to Cairo on Wednesday for talks on the war in Gaza, part of a flurry of diplomacy aimed at securing another ceasefire and hostage swap at a moment when the militant group is putting up stiff resistance to Israel’s offensive. Hamas seeks a permanent ceasefire in exchange for the remaining hostages held in Gaza, FRANCE 24’s Irris Makler said, adding that Israel is not prepared to end the conflict at this stage. “What they want is a temporary pause in return for the most vulnerable hostages,” Makler said.
