Doha, Cairo and Washington urged Israel and Hamas to adopt a 3-phase plan for hostage release, ending the Gaza war, and rebuilding the Gaza Strip.

On Saturday night, Doha, Cairo and Washington urged Israel and Hamas to adopt a 3-phase roadmap – for the release of the remaining 125 hostages, an end to the Gaza war, and the rehabilitation of the enclave – that US President Joe Biden had publicly revealed the day before.

Qatar and Egypt, which have been mediating a deal with the US, spoke up after Biden announced a 3-phase deal in which female, sick, elderly, and wounded hostages would be released within the first 6 weeks.

The second phase would involve the release of the remaining hostages.

The third phase focuses on the rehabilitation of Gaza and the return of hostages’ remains.

The basic outline announced by Biden from the White House was essentially the framework of an Israeli proposal from weeks ago, which Hamas had rejected, according to a source at The Jerusalem Post.

It calls for a 6-week pause in the war to allow for the release of humanitarian hostages, but it does not address the topic of a permanent ceasefire.

Hamas had insisted that Israel must commit to end the war before releasing any hostages.

Egypt, Qatar, and the United States are now working to break the impasse, with the Biden administration stepping up the pressure for a deal.
